NYU Langone neuroscientists identified the brain region likely responsible for recognizing images after seeing them once, ...

Perceptual learning and visual cognition constitute an interdisciplinary field that investigates the brain’s remarkable capacity to refine visual processing through experience. By examining how ...

The field of neural models of perception and learning has witnessed substantial progress in recent years, combining insights from computational neuroscience, cognitive psychology and artificial ...

This important study describes long-range serial dependence of performance on a visual texture discrimination training task that manipulated conditions to induce differing degrees of location transfer ...

Despite decades of research, the mechanisms behind fast flashes of insight that change how a person perceives their world, termed "one-shot learning," have remained unknown. A mysterious type of ...

A collaboration between SISSA’s Physics and Neuroscience groups has taken a step forward in understanding how memories are stored and retrieved in the brain. The study, recently published in Neuron, ...

Here's why most adults aren't "smarter than an 8th grader" when it comes to visual perceptual learning (VPL). Neuroscientists at Brown University recently discovered that school-aged children ...

Researchers examined decades of data to create a unifying theory to explain biases in perception. Photo-Illustration: Martha Morales/The University of Texas at Austin How humans perceive the world ...

As global environmental change accelerates, humans are increasingly exposed to a spectrum of climate-related stressors such as extreme weather events, ...
