Agnosia refers to a specific type of sensory processing deficit that is caused by brain damage. It results in the loss of the ability to identify or recognize familiar objects or people, even though sensory function (like vision or hearing) is intact. Prosopagnosia is a type of agnosia that specifically affects the ability to recognize faces. Insomnia, aphagia, and amnesia are all different conditions that do not involve sensory processing deficits.
