Perceptual learning at a conceptual level

R Wang, J Wang, JY Zhang, XY Xie… - Journal of …, 2016 - Soc Neuroscience
Humans can learn to abstract and conceptualize the shared visual features defining an
object category in object learning. Therefore, learning is generalizable to transformations of …

Prolonged training at threshold promotes robust retinotopic specificity in perceptual learning

SC Hung, AR Seitz - Journal of Neuroscience, 2014 - Soc Neuroscience
