Tuning perception and decisions to temporal context

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 ...

Perceptual learning is specific beyond vision and decision making

Michael Herzog, Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Aline Françoise Cretenoud

Perceptual learning is usually assumed to occur within sensory areas or when sensory evidence is mapped onto decisions. Subsequent procedural and motor processes, involved in most perceptual learning experiments, are thought to play no role in the learning ...

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 ...

Hyper-specificity of perceptual learning

Lukasz Grzeczkowski

Perceptual learning is the ability to improve perception through practice. Perceptual learning is usually specific for the task and the stimulus features trained with. For example, training orientation discrimination with vertically oriented stimuli does n ...

Comparisons of verbal fluency brain correlates between adults and adolescents suffering from schizophrenia spectrum disorders: A pilot study

Pierre Magistretti, Pierre Marquet

Background and Objectives: Prefrontal cortex (PFC) dysfunctions leading to cognitive deficits refer to a core feature of schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SSD). This exploratory study compares the effect of SSD on two stages of maturation of PFC. Methods: ...

Theory of representation learning in cortical neural networks

Carlos Stein Naves de Brito

Our brain continuously self-organizes to construct and maintain an internal representation of the world based on the information arriving through sensory stimuli. Remarkably, cortical areas related to different sensory modalities appear to share the same f ...

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 ...

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 ...

Body part-centered and full body-centered peripersonal space representations

Olaf Blanke, Hervé Lissek, Andrea Serino, Patrick Marmaroli, Elisa Canzoneri

Dedicated neural systems represent the space surrounding the body, termed Peripersonal space (PPS), by integrating visual or auditory stimuli occurring near the body with somatosensory information. As a behavioral proxy to PPS, we measured participants' re ...

Perceptual Learning With Only One Stimulus

Michael Herzog, Lukasz Grzeczkowski

Perceptual learning is learning to see. For example in a bisection task, three parallel lines are presented with the central line slightly offset towards the right or the left outer line. Participants indicate the offset direction. Training gradually impro ...

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 ...

About similar characteristics of visual perceptual learning and LTP

Michael Herzog, Carl Kristoffer Aberg

Perceptual learning is an implicit form of learning which induces long-lasting perceptual enhancements. Perceptual learning shows intriguing characteristics. For example, a minimal number of trials per session is needed for learning and the interleaved pre ...

Vulnerability of conditional NCAM-deficient mice to develop stress-induced behavioral alterations

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez

Previous studies in rodents showed that chronic stress induces structural and functional alterations in several brain regions, including shrinkage of the hippocampus and the prefrontal cortex, which are accompanied by cognitive and emotional disturbances. ...

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 ...

Perceptual learning of motion discrimination by mental imagery

Michael Herzog

Perceptual learning can occur when stimuli are only imagined, i.e., without proper stimulus presentation. For example, perceptual learning improved bisection discrimination when only the two outer lines of the bisection stimulus were presented and the cent ...

Does perceptual learning suffer from retrograde interference?

Michael Herzog, Carl Kristoffer Aberg

In motor learning, training a task B can disrupt improvements of performance of a previously learned task A, indicating that learning needs consolidation. An influential study suggested that this is the case also for visual perceptual learning [1]. Using t ...

Human perceptual learning by mental imagery

Michael Herzog

Perceptual learning is learning to perceive. For example, a radiologist is able to easily identify anomalies in medical images only after extended training. Theoretical and psychophysical studies [1-12] suggest that such improvements of performance are acc ...

Perceptual learning and roving: Stimulus types and overlapping neural populations

Michael Herzog, Carl Kristoffer Aberg

In perceptual learning, performance usually improves when observers train with one type of stimulus, for example, a bisection stimulus. Roving denotes the situation when, instead of one, two or more types of stimuli are presented randomly interleaved, for ...

Temporal patterning of 'unlearnable' stimuli types does not always enable learning

Michael Herzog, Carl Kristoffer Aberg

Presenting two or more stimulus types randomly interleaved, so-called roving stimuli, disrupts perceptual learning in many paradigms. It was recently reported that learning with disrupting stimuli types is possible when stimuli are presented in an alternat ...

Perceptual learning: why mice do not play backgammon

Perceptual learning is the ability to modify perception through practice. As a form of brain plasticity, perceptual learning has been studied for more than thirty years in different fields including psychology, neurophysiology and computational neuroscienc ...
