Early Visual Cortex as a Multiscale Cognitive Blackboard
2016
Annual Review of Vision Science
The architecture also has distinct advantages for the processing of visual routines that rely on a number of sequentially executed processing steps. ...
The modulatory influences allow the early visual cortex to act as a multiscale cognitive blackboard for read and write operations by higher visual areas, which can thereby efficiently exchange information ...
In all these cases, perceptual grouping is accompanied by the labeling of the to-be-grouped image elements in the visual cortex with enhanced neuronal activity (the precise relationship between object-based ...

Recurrent dynamics in the cerebral cortex: Integration of sensory evidence with stored knowledge
2021
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Current concepts of sensory processing in the cerebral cortex emphasize serial extraction and recombination of features in hierarchically structured feed-forward networks in order to capture the relations ...
Here a concept is proposed that assigns specific functions to the dynamics of cortical networks and combines, in a unifying approach, the respective advantages of recurrent and feed-forward processing. ...
Grouping criteria based on higher-order statistics of natural scenes are, in all likelihood, stored in the functional architecture of downstream areas. ...

Neural correlates of sparse coding and dimensionality reduction
2019
PLoS Computational Biology
Although NSC might not apply to all brain areas (for example, motor or executive function areas) the success of NSC-based models, especially in sensory areas, warrants further investigation for neural ...
In addition, NSC might provide a useful theoretical framework under which to understand the often complex and nonintuitive response properties of neurons in other brain areas. ...
Because of its roots in efficient coding theories of natural image processing, there is a large body of research highlighting the role of NSC in visual cortex function (e.g., [24, 35, 41, 45, 46] ). ...

Number As a Primary Perceptual Attribute: A Review
2015
Perception
But provided the elements are not too crowded (less than about two items per square degree in central vision, less in the periphery), there is little evidence that estimation of numerosity depends on mechanisms ...
In this review, we examine more recent evidence suggesting a further division, between sets of items greater than the subitizing range, but sparse enough to be individuated as single items; and densely ...
Interestingly, a recent neural model of numerosity investigates which neural architectures subserve the mapping of visual numerosities into numerical categories (numbers). ...
