Answer: perceptual categorization

Explanation: Categorization simply refers to the grouping objects, events, characteristics etc. based on the common properties they share. The ability for infants to perceptually categorize forms around three months of age when they start recognizing and identifying objects around them. These they put these into categories of color, shape, size, texture, etc. It is a remarkable way/ability that is fundamental to processing large amounts of sensory information and efficiently recognizing objects by the brain.
