We propose that explicit vision advances in reverse hierarchical direction, as shown for
perceptual learning. Processing along the feedforward hierarchy of areas, leading to …

Visual perceptual learning (VPL) is long-term performance increase resulting from visual
perceptual experience. Task-relevant VPL of a feature results from training of a task on the …

Perceptual learning can be defined as practice-induced improvement in the ability to
perform specific perceptual tasks. We previously proposed the Reverse Hierarchy Theory as …

Visual perceptual learning through practice or training can significantly improve
performance on visual tasks. Originally seen as a manifestation of plasticity in the primary …

Visual perceptual learning (VPL) is defined as a long-term improvement in performance on a
visual task. In recent years, the idea that conscious effort is necessary for VPL to occur has …

The visual expertise of adult humans is jointly determined by evolution, visual development
and visual perceptual learning. Perceptual learning refers to performance improvements in …

How does the brain learn those visual features that are relevant for behavior? In this article,
we focus on two factors that guide plasticity of visual representations. First, reinforcers cause …

Learning in educational settings emphasizes declarative and procedural knowledge.
Studies of expertise, however, point to other crucial components of learning, especially …

We consider perceptual learning: experience-induced changes in the way perceivers extract
information. Often neglected in scientific accounts of learning and in instruction, perceptual …

Computational phenotyping has emerged as a powerful tool for characterizing individual
variability across a variety of cognitive domains. An individual's computational phenotype is …
