Our ability to focus on goal‐relevant aspects of the environment is critically dependent on
our ability to ignore or inhibit distracting information. One perspective is that distractor …

A central feature of human brain activity is the alpha rhythm: a 7–13 Hz oscillation observed
most notably over occipitoparietal brain regions during periods of eyes‐closed rest. Alpha …

Ambiguous optical illusions have been a paradigmatic object of fascination, research and
inspiration in arts, psychology and video games. However, accurate computational models …

The binding problem—how to integrate features into objects—poses a fundamental
challenge for the brain. Neural oscillations, especially γ-oscillations, have been proposed as …

Pre‐stimulus electroencephalogram (EEG) oscillations, especially in the alpha range (8–13
Hz), can affect the sensitivity to temporal lags between modalities in multisensory …

Neural oscillations in the alpha band (7–13 Hz) have long been associated with reductions
in attention. However, recent studies have suggested a more nuanced perspective in which …

Ongoing fluctuations in neural excitability and in networkwide activity patterns before
stimulus onset have been proposed to underlie variability in near-threshold stimulus …

Ambiguous images elicit bistable perception, wherein periods of momentary perceptual
stability are interrupted by sudden perceptual switches. When intermittently presented …

Bi-stable perception is a strong instance of cognitive self-organization, providing a research
model for how 'the brain makes up its mind.'The complexity of perceptual bistability prevents …

Bistable images have the possibility of being perceived in two different ways. Due to their
physical characteristics, these visual stimuli allow two different perceptions, associated with …
