[PDF][PDF] Prediction as a candidate for learning deep hierarchical models of data
RB Palm - Technical University of Denmark, 2012 - academia.edu
Recent findings [HOT06] have made possible the learning of deep layered hierarchical
representations of data mimicking the brains working. It is hoped that this paradigm will …

A rapid subcortical amygdala route for faces irrespective of spatial frequency and emotion
There is significant controversy over the existence and function of a direct subcortical visual
pathway to the amygdala. It is thought that this pathway rapidly transmits low spatial …

Stochastic generation of gamma-band activity in primary visual cortex of awake and anesthetized monkeys
Oscillatory neural activity within the gamma band (25–90 Hz) is generally thought to be able
to provide a timing signal for harmonizing neural computations across different brain …

Dissociating the effect of noise on sensory processing and overall decision difficulty
It has been proposed that perceptual decision making involves a task-difficulty component,
which detects perceptual uncertainty and guides allocation of attentional resources. It is …

Getting drowsy? Alert/nonalert transitions and visual thalamocortical network dynamics
The effects of different EEG brain states on spontaneous firing of cortical populations are not
well understood. Such state shifts may occur frequently under natural conditions, and …

Untuned suppression makes a major contribution to the enhancement of orientation selectivity in macaque V1
D Xing, DL Ringach, MJ Hawken… - Journal of …, 2011 - Soc Neuroscience
One of the functions of the cerebral cortex is to increase the selectivity for stimulus features.
Finding more about the mechanisms of increased cortical selectivity is important for …

Finding flicker: Critical differences in temporal frequency capture attention
Rapid visual flicker is known to capture attention. Here we show slow flicker can also
capture attention under reciprocal temporal conditions. Observers searched for a target line …

[HTML][HTML] Visual crowding is correlated with awareness
TSA Wallis, PJ Bex - Current Biology, 2011 - cell.com
Crowding by nearby features causes identification failures in the peripheral visual field [1, 2].
However, prominent visual features can sometimes fail to reach awareness [3, 4], causing …
