Adaptation, the prolonged presentation of stimuli, has been used to probe mechanisms of
visual processing in physiological, imaging, and perceptual studies. Previous …

Recent stimulus history, or adaptation, can alter neuronal response properties. Adaptation
effects have been characterized in a number of visually responsive structures, from the …

Recent stimulus history—adaptation—alters neuronal responses and perception. Previous
electrophysiological and perceptual studies suggest that prolonged adaptation strengthens …

Virtually all stages of the visual system exhibit adaptation: neurons adjust their responses
based on the recent stimulus history. While some of these adjustments occur at specific …

Cat striate cortical neurons were investigated using a new method of studying adaptation
aftereffects. Stimuli were sinusoidal gratings of variable contrast, spatial frequency, and drift …

For medical and fundamental reasons, we need to understand adult brain plasticity at
several levels: structural, physiological, and behavioral. Historically, brain plasticity has …

Recent sensory experience affects both perception and the response properties of visual
neurons. Here I review a rapid form of experience-dependent plasticity that follows …

How an object is perceived depends on the temporal context in which it is encountered.
Sensory signals in the brain also depend on temporal context, a phenomenon often referred …

A fundamental and nearly ubiquitous feature of sensory encoding is that neuronal
responses are strongly influenced by recent experience, or adaptation. Theoretical and …

Prolonged exposure to a stimulus, called'adaptation', reduces cortical responsiveness.
Adaptation has been studied extensively in primary visual cortex (V1), where responsivity is …
