A widely held view of the visual system supported the perspective that the primate brain is
organized in two main specialized streams, called the ventral and dorsal streams. The …

Perceptual decision-making relies on the gradual accumulation of noisy sensory evidence. It
is often assumed that such decisions are degraded by adding noise to a stimulus, or to the …

Predictive coding theories argue that recent experience establishes expectations in the
brain that generate prediction errors when violated. Prediction errors provide a possible …

Much work has been done to uncover the mechanisms underlying form and motion
information integration. However, no study examined the symmetry of the integration of form …

The human brain is inherently limited in the information it can make consciously accessible.
When people monitor a rapid stream of visual items for two targets, they typically fail to see …

The response of cortical neurons to sensory stimuli is shaped both by past events
(adaptation) and the expectation of future events (prediction). Here we employed a visual …

When moving in the environment, optic flow and form (eg, motion streaks) information
generally appear simultaneously. Previous studies have shown that observers can estimate …

The perceived shapes of almost circular paths are modified by concentrically placed context
paths. These induced changes have previously been attributed to curvature masking. This …

Recent studies have found that the estimates of motion directions are biased toward the
previous form orientations, showing serial dependence, and the serial dependence does not …

Global motion and global form are proposed to be processed through functionally
differentiated independent channels along dorsal (motion) and ventral (form) pathways …
