Trade-off between object selectivity and tolerance in monkey inferotemporal cortex

D Zoccolan, M Kouh, T Poggio… - Journal of …, 2007 - Soc Neuroscience
Object recognition requires both selectivity among different objects and tolerance to vastly
different retinal images of the same object, resulting from natural variation in (eg) position …

Multisensory perception constrains the formation of object categories: a review of evidence from sensory-driven and predictive processes on categorical decisions

FN Newell, E McKenna, MA Seveso… - … of the Royal …, 2023 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Although object categorization is a fundamental cognitive ability, it is also a complex process
going beyond the perception and organization of sensory stimulation. Here we review …

Hippocampal representations switch from errors to predictions during acquisition of predictive associations

F Aitken, P Kok - Nature Communications, 2022 - nature.com
We constantly exploit the statistical regularities in our environment to help guide our
perception. The hippocampus has been suggested to play a pivotal role in both learning …

Comparison of shape encoding in primate dorsal and ventral visual pathways

SR Lehky, AB Sereno - Journal of neurophysiology, 2007 - journals.physiology.org
