Processing load, and not stimulus evidence, determines the duration of unconscious visual feature integration

Michael Herzog, Leila Drissi Daoudi - Kleinbauer, Lukas Vogelsang

Integration across space and time is essential for the analysis of motion, low contrast, and many more stimuli. A crucial question is what determines the duration of integration. Based on classical models of decision-making, one might expect that integrati ...

Tuning perception and decisions to temporal context

David Pascucci

Recent work suggests that serial dependence, where perceptual decisions are biased toward previous stimuli, arises from the prior that sensory input is temporally correlated. However, existing studies have mostly used random stimulus sequences that do not ...

The role of secondary features in serial dependence

David Pascucci

Recent work indicates that visual features are processed in a serially dependent manner: The decision about a stimulus feature in the present is influenced by the features of stimuli seen in the past, leading to serial dependence. It remains unclear, howev ...

Attractive and repulsive serial dependence: The role of task relevance, the passage of time, and the number of stimuli

David Pascucci, Gizay Ceylan

Visual decisions are attracted toward features of previous stimuli. This phenomenon, termed serial dependence, has been related to a mechanism that integrates present visual input with stimuli seen up to 10 to 15 s in the past. It is believed that this mec ...

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 ...

Crossmodal Congruency Enhances Performance of Healthy Older Adults in Visual-Tactile Pattern Matching

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel

One of the pivotal challenges of aging is to maintain independence in the activities of daily life. In order to adapt to changes in the environment, it is crucial to continuously process and accurately combine simultaneous input from different sensory syst ...

Mapping and characterization of positive and negative BOLD responses to visual stimulation in multiple brain regions at 7T

Rolf Gruetter, Wietske Van der Zwaag, Patricia Figueiredo, João Pedro Forjaco Jorge

External stimuli and tasks often elicit negative BOLD responses in various brain regions, and growing experimental evidence supports that these phenomena are functionally meaningful. In this work, the high sensitivity available at 7T was explored to map an ...

Encoding and Decoding Models in Cognitive Electrophysiology

Stéphanie Martin

Cognitive neuroscience has seen rapid growth in the size and complexity of data recorded from the human brain as well as in the computational tools available to analyze this data. This data explosion has resulted in an increased use of multivariate, model- ...

What is new in perceptual learning?

Michael Herzog, Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Aline Françoise Cretenoud

What is new in perceptual learning? In the early days of research, specificity was the hallmark of perceptual learning; that is, improvements following training were limited to the trained stimulus features. For example, training with a stimulus improves p ...

Method for the preparation of a coating comprising oligomeric alkynes

Yves Leterrier, Holger Frauenrath, Stephen Schrettl

The invention relates to a method for the preparation of a coating comprising at least one coating layer on a substrate, the method comprising the steps of a. providing monomers of the type R- (N)x-(L)m- (C=C)n-(L')o- (N')y-R', wherein R is a head moiety, ...

Does sensitivity in binary choice tasks depend on response modality?

Michael Herzog, Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Izabela Szumska

In most models of vision, a stimulus is processed in a series of dedicated visual areas, leading to categorization of this stimulus, and possible decision, which subsequently may be mapped onto a motor-response. In these models, stimulus processing is thou ...

Stroking or Buzzing? A Comparison of Somatosensory Touch Stimuli Using 7 Tesla fMRI

Rolf Gruetter, Wietske Van der Zwaag, Roberto Martuzzi

Studying body representations in the brain helps us to understand how we humans relate to our own bodies. The in vivo mapping of the somatosensory cortex, where these representations are found, is greatly facilitated by the high spatial resolution and high ...

Contour erasure and filling-in: Old simulations account for most new observations

Gregory Francis

Three recent studies used similar stimulus sequences to investigate mechanisms for brightness perception. Anstis and Greenlee (2014) demonstrated that adaptation to a flickering black and white outline erased the visibility of a subsequent target shape def ...

Linking perceptual learning with identical stimuli to imagery perceptual learning

Michael Herzog, Lukasz Grzeczkowski

Perceptual learning is usually thought to be exclusively driven by the stimuli presented during training (and the underlying synaptic learning rules). In some way, we are slaves of our visual experiences. However, learning can occur even when no stimuli ar ...

Deleterious effects of roving on learned tasks

Michael Herzog, Aaron Michael Clarke, Lukasz Grzeczkowski

In typical perceptual learning experiments, one stimulus type (e.g., a bisection stimulus offset either to the left or right) is presented per trial. In roving, two different stimulus types (e.g., a 30' and a 20' wide bisection stimulus) are randomly inter ...

Perceptual learning, roving and the unsupervised bias

Michael Herzog, Wulfram Gerstner, Carl Kristoffer Aberg, Nicolas Frémaux

Perceptual learning improves perception through training. Perceptual learning improves with most stimulus types but fails when certain stimulus types are mixed during training (roving). This result is surprising because classical supervised and unsupervise ...

The temporal dynamics of feature integration for color and form

Michael Herzog

When two visual stimuli are presented in rapid succession only one fused image is perceived. For example, a red disk followed by a green disk is perceived as a single yellow disk (e.g., Efron, Perc Psychophys, 1973). For two verniers that last 30ms each, i ...

Decoding stimulus-related information from single-trial EEG responses based on voltage topographies

Neuroimaging studies typically compare experimental conditions using average brain responses, thereby overlooking the stimulus-related information conveyed by distributed spatio-temporal patterns of single-trial responses. Here, we take advantage of this r ...

In social insects, workers perform a multitude of tasks such as foraging, nest construction and brood rearing without central control of how work is allocated among individuals. It has been suggested that workers choose a task by responding to stimuli gath ...
