Control of multistability

AN Pisarchik, U Feudel - Physics Reports, 2014 - Elsevier
Multistability or coexistence of different attractors for a given set of parameters is one of the
most exciting phenomena in dynamical systems. It can be found in different areas of science …

Neural bases of binocular rivalry

F Tong, M Meng, R Blake - Trends in cognitive sciences, 2006 - cell.com
During binocular rivalry, conflicting monocular images compete for access to consciousness
in a stochastic, dynamical fashion. Recent human neuroimaging and psychophysical studies …

The neural bases of multistable perception

P Sterzer, A Kleinschmidt, G Rees - Trends in cognitive sciences, 2009 - cell.com
Multistable perception is the spontaneous alternation between two or more perceptual states
that occurs when sensory information is ambiguous. Multistable phenomena permit …

[HTML][HTML] Temporal dynamics of auditory and visual bistability reveal common principles of perceptual organization

D Pressnitzer, JM Hupé - Current biology, 2006 - cell.com
When dealing with natural scenes, sensory systems have to process an often messy and
ambiguous flow of information. A stable perceptual organization nevertheless has to be …

[HTML][HTML] Ambiguous figures–what happens in the brain when perception changes but not the stimulus

J Kornmeier, M Bach - Frontiers in human neuroscience, 2012 - frontiersin.org
During observation of ambiguous figures our perception reverses spontaneously although
the visual information stays unchanged. Research on this phenomenon so far suffered from …

The role of frontal and parietal brain areas in bistable perception

T Knapen, J Brascamp, J Pearson… - Journal of …, 2011 - Soc Neuroscience
When sensory input allows for multiple, competing perceptual interpretations, observers'
perception can fluctuate over time, which is called bistable perception. Imaging studies in …

Multisensory congruency as a mechanism for attentional control over perceptual selection

R Van Ee, JJA Van Boxtel, AL Parker… - Journal of …, 2009 - Soc Neuroscience
The neural mechanisms underlying attentional selection of competing neural signals for
awareness remains an unresolved issue. We studied attentional selection, using …

[HTML][HTML] Rapidly learned stimulus expectations alter perception of motion

M Chalk, AR Seitz, P Seriès - Journal of vision, 2010 - jov.arvojournals.org
Expectations broadly influence our experience of the world. However, the process by which
they are acquired and then shape our sensory experiences is not well understood. Here, we …

[HTML][HTML] Endogenous attention prolongs dominance durations in binocular rivalry

SC Chong, D Tadin, R Blake - Journal of vision, 2005 - jov.arvojournals.org
We investigated the effects of attention on dominance durations during binocular rivalry. In a
series of three experiments, observers performed several tasks while viewing rival stimuli to …

[HTML][HTML] Disrupting parietal function prolongs dominance durations in binocular rivalry

N Zaretskaya, A Thielscher, NK Logothetis, A Bartels - Current biology, 2010 - cell.com
Human brain imaging studies of bistable perceptual phenomena revealed that frontal and
parietal areas are activated during perceptual switches between the two conflicting percepts …
