Attractive serial dependence overcomes repulsive neuronal adaptation
TC Sheehan, JT Serences - PLoS biology, 2022 - journals.plos.org
Sensory responses and behavior are strongly shaped by stimulus history. For example,
perceptual reports are sometimes biased toward previously viewed stimuli (serial …

Unveiling the abstract format of mnemonic representations
Working memory (WM) enables information storage for future use, bridging the gap between
perception and behavior. We hypothesize that WM representations are abstractions of low …

Neural tuning instantiates prior expectations in the human visual system
Perception is often modelled as a process of active inference, whereby prior expectations
are combined with noisy sensory measurements to estimate the structure of the world. This …

Orientation anisotropies in macaque visual areas
C Fang, X Cai, HD Lu - Proceedings of the National …, 2022 - National Acad Sciences
In mammals, a larger number of neurons in V1 are devoted to cardinal (horizontal and
vertical) orientations than to oblique orientations. However, electrophysiological results from …

Natural scene sampling reveals reliable coarse-scale orientation tuning in human V1
Orientation selectivity in primate visual cortex is organized into cortical columns. Since
cortical columns are at a finer spatial scale than the sampling resolution of standard BOLD …

[HTML][HTML] Mapping spatial frequency preferences across human primary visual cortex
Neurons in primate visual cortex (area V1) are tuned for spatial frequency, in a manner that
depends on their position in the visual field. Several studies have examined this …

Opposing effects of selectivity and invariance in peripheral vision
CM Ziemba, EP Simoncelli - Nature communications, 2021 - nature.com
Sensory processing necessitates discarding some information in service of preserving and
reformatting more behaviorally relevant information. Sensory neurons seem to achieve this …
