Listeners must accomplish two complementary perceptual feats in extracting a message from speech. They must discriminate linguistically-relevant acoustic variability and …
The ability to categorize sensory stimuli is crucial for an animal's survival in a complex environment. Memorizing categories instead of individual exemplars enables greater …
Pervasive Information Architecture explains the 'why'and 'how'of pervasive information architecture (IA) through detailed examples and real-world stories. It offers insights about …
Neurophysiological studies have identified a number of brain regions critically involved in solving the problem of action selection or decision making. In the case of highly practiced …
A biologically detailed computational model is described of how categorization judgments become automatic in tasks that depend on procedural learning. The model assumes 2 …
Object category learning is a fundamental ability, requiring the combination of" bottom-up" stimulus-driven with" top-down" task-specific information. It therefore may be a fruitful …

New neurons are continuously generated in the subgranular zone of the dentate gyrus throughout adulthood. These new neurons gradually integrate into hippocampal circuits …
Flexible rule learning, a behavior with obvious adaptive value, is known to depend on an intact prefrontal cortex (PFC). One simple, yet powerful, form of such learning consists of …
Experience-dependent plasticity is a fundamental property of the brain. It is critical for everyday function, is impaired in a range of neurological and psychiatric disorders, and …
