===Using memory and recent experience=== Our memory has a large impact on resolving an ambiguous image, as it helps the visual system to identify and recognize objects without having to analyze and categorize them repeatedly. Without memory and prior knowledge, an image with several groups of similar objects will be difficult to perceive. Any object can have an ambiguous representation and can be mistakenly categorized into the wrong groups without sufficient memory recognition of an object. This finding suggests that prior experience is necessary for proper perception.<ref name="daelli">{{cite journal | last1 = Daelli | first1 = V. | last2 = van Rijsbergen | first2 = N.J. | last3 = Treves | first3 = A. | year = 2010 | title = How recent experience affects the perception of ambiguous objects | journal = Brain Research | volume = 1322 | pages = 81β91 | doi = 10.1016/j.brainres.2010.01.060 | pmid=20122901| s2cid = 45388116 }}</ref> Studies have been done with the use of [[Greeble (psychology)|Greebles]] to show the role of memory in object recognition.<ref name="Wolfe"/> The act of priming the participant with an exposure to a similar visual stimulus also has a large effect on the ease of resolving an ambiguity.<ref name="daelli"/> [[File:Verbeek-rocanoe.gif|thumb|upright|Verbeek's strips could be seen differently when viewed upside down.
