The contrast sensitivity function (CSF) predicts functional vision better than acuity, but long
testing times prevent its psychophysical assessment in clinical and practical applications …

Treatment for amblyopia commonly involves passive methods such as occlusion of the non‐
amblyopic eye. An evidence base for these methods is provided by animal models of visual …

Background Perceptual learning has been documented in adult humans over a wide range
of tasks. Although the often-observed specificity of learning is generally interpreted as …

Purpose.: The qCSF method is a novel procedure for rapid measurement of spatial contrast
sensitivity functions (CSFs). It combines Bayesian adaptive inference with a trial-to-trial …

Using the external noise plus training paradigm, we have consistently found that two
independent mechanisms, stimulus enhancement and external noise exclusion, support …

Much knowledge of sensory cortical plasticity is gleaned from perceptual learning studies
that improve visual performance [1–7]. Although the improvements are likely caused by …

Perceptual learning effects demonstrate that the adult visual system retains neural plasticity.
If perceptual learning holds any value as a treatment tool for amblyopia, trained …

对人的心理学研究结果显示, 对比度检测学习可提高学习者对视觉刺激的对比敏感度,
但其潜在的神经机制尚不清楚. 该研究用二选一(two-alternative forced choice) 方法训练3 …

Historically, vision research in China was one of a few distinct research programs within the
Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). With improved funding opportunities and research …
