Inter-Task Transfer of Prism Adaptation through Motor Imagery

Prism adaptation (PA) is a useful method to investigate short-term sensorimotor plasticity. Following active exposure to prisms, individuals show consistent after-effects, probing that they have adapted to the perturbation. Whether after-effects are transf ...

Pre-stimulus alpha activity modulates long-lasting unconscious feature integration

Michael Herzog, David Pascucci, Maëlan Quentin Menétrey

Pre-stimulus alpha (α) activity can influence perception of shortly presented, low-contrast stimuli. The underlying mechanisms are often thought to affect perception exactly at the time of presentation. In addition, it is suggested that α cycles determine ...

Learning V1 Simple Cells with Vector Representation of Local Content and Matrix Representation of Local Motion

Yufan Ren, Siyuan Huang

This paper proposes a representational model for image pairs such as consecutive video frames that are related by local pixel displacements, in the hope that the model may shed light on motion perception in primary visual cortex (V1). The model couples the ...

Breathing is coupled with voluntary initiation of mental imagery

Olaf Blanke, Oliver Alan Kannape, Hyeongdong Park

Previous research has suggested that bodily signals from internal organs are associated with diverse cortical and subcortical processes involved in sensory-motor functions, beyond homeostatic reflexes. For instance, a recent study demonstrated that the pre ...

GenIE: Generative Information Extraction

Robert West, Maxime Jean Julien Peyrard, Martin Josifoski

Structured and grounded representation of text is typically formalized by closed information extraction, the problem of extracting an exhaustive set of (subject, relation, object) triplets that are consistent with a predefined set of entities and relations ...

Imagined paralysis alters somatosensory evoked-potentials

Olaf Blanke, Fred Mast, Christophe Lopez, Estelle Palluel, Silvia Marchesotti

Recent studies employing body illusions have shown that multisensory conflict can alter body representations and modulate low-level sensory processing. One defining feature of these body illusions is that they are sensory driven and thus passive on behalf ...

Neural dynamics of the competition between grouping organizations

Michael Herzog, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Einat Rashal

Neural dynamics of the competition between grouping organizations have been studied to a limited extent. The paradigms used so far confounded grouping operations with task demands, using explicit reports of the predominantly perceived organization and bias ...

Experimentally induced limb-disownership in mixed reality

Oliver Alan Kannape, Bigna Lenggenhager

The seemingly stable construct of our bodily self depends on the continued, successful integration of multi sensory feedback about our body, rather than its purely physical composition. Accordingly, pathological disruption of such neural processing is link ...

Learning nuisances to track pedestrians in autonomous vehicles

Alexandre Massoud Alahi, George Adaimi

Autonomous vehicles rely on an accurate perception module. One of the fundamental challenges is to efficiently track pedestrians surrounding a vehicle to anticipate risky situations. Over the past decades, researchers have formulated the tracking problem a ...

Is the perception of illusions abnormal in schizophrenia?

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Fred Mast

There seems to be no common factor for visual perception, i.e., performance in visual tasks correlates only weakly with each other. Similar results were found with visual illusions. One may expect common visual factors for individuals suffering from pathol ...
