Adaptive Gain Modulation in V1 Explains Contextual Modifications during Bisection Learning
2009
PLoS Computational Biology
The model reproduces both the psychophysical results on bisection learning and the modified contextual interactions observed in V1 during task performance. ...
Perceptual learning mainly consists in strengthening this attentional signal, leading to a more effective gain modulation. ...
Hence, the experimental data is more readily explained if the modulations of the contextual interactions in V1 originate from a task-dependent topdown signal to V1 which is adapted during perceptual learning ...

Perceptual Learning via Modification of Cortical Top-Down Signals
2007
PLoS Computational Biology
The classical view of perceptual learning is that practicing modulates the feedforward input stream through synaptic modifications onto or within V1. ...

Neural networks and perceptual learning
2004
Nature
Perceptual learning is the improvement in performance on a variety of simple sensory tasks, following practice. ...
Second, it has to describe the changes that occur in the sensory pathways when perceptual learning occurs. ...
These two modifications in tuning lead to opposite effects on the orientation discrimination at the trained or adapted orientation (improvement for learning and deterioration for adaptation). ...

Instead, the effects can be of many different kinds, not only augmenting or multiplying responses but also sharpening tuning curves, controlling contextual influences, or acting as a modulator of plasticity ...
The growing body of evidence points more toward the latter: whether one looks at how neurons in V1 carry information related to a three-line bisection task or how neurons in the frontal lobe modulate their ...

Perceptual learning in visual hyperacuity: a reweighting model
2009
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience
Our simulations also shed light on the model's limitations, for example in accounting for temporal aspects of training procedures or dependency of learning with contextual stimuli, which will need to be ...
Improvements of visual hyperacuity are a key focus in research of perceptual learning. ...
Their role is to remove contextual biases due to lateral interactions in V1, thus linearizing the representation, as well as to increase the gain of excitatory neurons. ...

Perceptual learning in Vision Research
2011
Vision Research
The stability of the visual system is viewed as an adaptation to a stable environment and instances of perceptual learning as a reaction of the brain to abrupt changes in the environment. ...
More recent studies during the last decade revealed the conditions needed for learning and the conditions under which learning can be generalized across stimuli and tasks. ...
If all perceptual learning is overfitting, how much of the performance gain can be explained by it? ...

Does attention play a role in dynamic receptive field adaptation to changing acoustic salience in A1?

Hearing Research
Acoustic filter properties of A1 neurons can dynamically adapt to stimulus statistics, classical conditioning, instrumental learning and the changing auditory attentional focus. ...
They learned to generalize the task for a wide variety of distinct background and foreground target stimuli. ...
They attribute this adaptive, dynamic multiplexing to a combination of changes in local circuits that arose during perceptual learning and top-down control that allows switching between the two different ...
