Dog experts, ornithologists, radiologists and other specialists are noted for their remarkable
abilities at categorizing, identifying and recognizing objects within their domain of expertise …

The authors present a theory of stochastic interactive parallel processing with special
emphasis on channel interactions and their relation to system capacity. The approach is …

The improvement of perceptual capabilities with training can offer important insight into the
physiological basis of learning in the cerebral cortex. The rapid time course and ease with …

Individuals improve with practice on a variety of perceptual tasks, presumably reflecting
plasticity in underlying neural mechanisms. We trained observers to discriminate biological …

Visual position discrimination improves with practice; however, the mechanism (s)
underlying this improvement are not yet known. We used positional noise to explore the …

Performance in perceptual tasks often improves with practice. This effect is known as
'perceptual learning,'and it has been the source of a great deal of interest and debate over …

What is learned during perceptual learning? We address this question by analyzing how
perceptual inefficiencies improve over the course of perceptual learning (Dosher & Lu …

Adult amblyopes can improve positional acuity through practice; however, the neural
mechanisms underlying this improvement are still not clear. In this study, seven adult …

The aim of this study was to determine whether auditory perceptual learning is associated
with changes in the frequency organization and/or neuronal response properties of primary …

Performance in perceptual tasks improves with repetition (perceptual learning), eventually
reaching a saturation level. Typically, when perceptual learning effects are studied, stimulus …
