Towards Motion Forecasting with Real-World Perception Inputs: Are End-to-End Approaches Competitive?

Alexandre Massoud Alahi

Motion forecasting is crucial in enabling autonomous vehicles to anticipate the future trajectories of surrounding agents. To do so, it requires solving mapping, detection, tracking, and then forecasting problems, in a multi-step pipeline. In this complex ...

Changes in spatial self-consciousness elicit grid cell–like representation in the entorhinal cortex

Olaf Blanke, Hyeongdong Park, Baptiste Gauthier, Emanuela De Falco, Louis Philippe Albert, Hyukjun Moon

Grid cells in the entorhinal cortex (EC) encode an individual’s location in space, integrating both environmental and multisensory bodily cues. Notably, body-derived signals are also primary signals for the sense of self. While studies have demonstrated th ...

Temporal aspects of feature integration in vision

Lukas Vogelsang

To fully comprehend visual perception, we need to necessarily understand its temporal dimension. Our visual environment is highly dynamic, requiring the processing and integration of temporal signals in order to make sense of it. Many processes, such as th ...

Decoding electroencephalographic responses to visual stimuli compatible with electrical stimulation

Silvestro Micera, Laura Toni, Fiorenzo Artoni, Simone Romeni

Electrical stimulation of the visual nervous system could improve the quality of life of patients affected by acquired blindness by restoring some visual sensations, but requires careful optimization of stimulation parameters to produce useful perceptions. ...

Robotically-induced auditory-verbal hallucinations: combining self-monitoring and strong perceptual priors

Olaf Blanke, Fosco Bernasconi, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Pavo Orepic, Melissa Faggella

Background. Inducing hallucinations under controlled experimental conditions in nonhallucinating individuals represents a novel research avenue oriented toward understanding complex hallucinatory phenomena, avoiding confounds observed in patients. Audito ...

Probing and modulating inter-areal coupling in the cortical visual motion processing pathway with non-invasive brain stimulation

Michele Bevilacqua

In the last few years, stroke ranked as the second most common cause of death and is the third most significant condition affecting disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) worldwide. Being the most prevalent and quality of life impacting post-stroke symptom ...

Serial Dependence in Human Visual Perception and Decision-Making

Gizay Ceylan

Decisions about a current visual stimulus are systematically biased by recently encountered stimuli, a phenomenon known as serial dependence. In human vision, for instance, we tend to report the features of current images as more similar â i.e., an attra ...

Butterfly effects in perceptual development: A review of the 'adaptive initial degradation' hypothesis

Lukas Vogelsang

Human perceptual development evolves in a stereotyped fashion, with initially limited perceptual capabilities maturing over the months or years following the commencement of sensory experience into robust proficiencies. This review focuses on the functiona ...

Equity ownership and identification with the founding team

Eva Maria Weissenböck

Founders benefit from identifying with their founding teams because identification facilitates cooperation in the team, aligns founders' actions with the norms and interests of the team, and, ultimately, enhances team performance. High identification with ...

MEMS-based Tunable Metasurface for Reflective Display Applications

Dorian Giraud Herle

In an era where portable electronic devices are indispensable for a wide range of activities, the need for displays that provide both long-lasting battery life and excellent visibility in different lighting conditions is increasingly important. Emissive di ...

Pre-stimulus alpha activity modulates long-lasting unconscious feature integration

Michael Herzog, David Pascucci, Maëlan Quentin Menétrey

Pre-stimulus alpha (α) activity can influence perception of shortly presented, low-contrast stimuli. The underlying mechanisms are often thought to affect perception exactly at the time of presentation. In addition, it is suggested that α cycles determine ...

The full-body illusion changes visual depth perception

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Sophie Jacqueline Andrée Betka

Knowing where objects are relative to us implies knowing where we are relative to the external world. Here, we investigated whether space perception can be influenced by an experimentally induced change in perceived self-location. To dissociate real and ap ...

Discovering perceived images of reused industrial heritage from user-generated photographs: Three mega-event reinforced industrial heritage transformation cases

Huishu Deng

Cities are increasingly reusing industrial heritage as part of cultural and creative regeneration strategies. However, designers and decision-makers face the challenge of determining which features and elements of industrial heritage are more perceived and ...

Perceptual Learning: Policy Insights From Basic Research to Real-World Applications

Michael Herzog

Perceptual learning is the process by which experience alters how incoming sensory information is processed by the brain to give rise to behavior-it is critical for how humans educate children, train experts, treat diseases, and promote health and well-bei ...

Hierarchical processing underpins competition in tactile perceptual bistability

Andrea Ferrario

Ambiguous sensory information can lead to spontaneous alternations between perceptual states, recently shown to extend to tactile perception. The authors recently proposed a simplified form of tactile rivalry which evokes two competing percepts for a fixed ...

Specific Gestalt principles cannot explain (un)crowding

Michael Herzog, Oh-Hyeon Choung, Einat Rashal

The standard physiological model has serious problems accounting for many aspects of vision, particularly when stimulus configurations become slightly more complex than the ones classically used, e.g., configurations of Gabors rather than only one or a few ...

Temporal windows of unconscious processing cannot easily be disrupted

Michael Herzog, Leila Drissi Daoudi - Kleinbauer, Lukas Vogelsang

Conscious perception is preceded by long periods of unconscious processing. These periods are crucial for analyzing temporal information and for solving the many ill-posed problems of vision. An important question is what starts and ends these windows and ...
