Stimulus and location specificity are long considered hallmarks of visual perceptual
learning. This renders visual perceptual learning distinct from other forms of learning, where …

A key feature of many cortical systems is functional organization: the arrangement of
neurons with specific functional properties in characteristic spatial patterns across the …

Primates rely on two eyes to perceive depth, while maintaining stable vision when either one
eye or both eyes are open. Although psychophysical and modeling studies have …

Genetic tools, which can be used for the morphology study of specific neurons, pathway-
selective connectome mapping, neuronal activity monitoring, and manipulation with a …

A key feature of cortical systems is functional organization: the arrangement of functionally
distinct neurons in characteristic spatial patterns. However, the principles underlying the …

Object recognition often involves the brain segregating objects from their surroundings.
Neurophysiological studies of figure-ground texture segregation have yielded inconsistent …

Calcium ions are important messengers in the nervous system, which produce various
cellular signals and play an important role in the regulation of neuronal excitability. Calcium …

Stimulus and location specificity are long considered hallmarks of visual perceptual
learning. This renders visual perceptual learning distinct from other forms of learning, where …

Humans have the remarkable capacity to recognize visual objects despite challenging
variations in their pose, illumination, and context. This ability depends on the ventral visual …

Natural images comprise contours and boundaries defined by 1st-order luminance-
modulated (LM) cues that are readily encoded by V1 neurons, and 2nd-order contrast …
