We compared temporal processing in elderly and young controls using EEG and electrical neuroimaging. Subjects discriminated the offset direction of Vernier stimuli in four conditions: Vernier only, mask only, Vernier immediately followed by a mask, and Ver ...
The complexity of processes occurring in the brain is an intriguing issue not just for scientists and medical doctors, but the humanity in general. The cortex ability to perceive and analyze an enormous amount of information in an instance of time, the par ...
We studied the spatiotemporal characteristics of cortical activity in early visual areas and the fusiform gyri (FG) by means of magnetoencephalography (MEG). Subjects performed a visual classification task, in which letters and visually similar pseudolette ...
The processing and perception of visual stimuli are greatly dependent on the context in which those stimuli are presented. While this is not always (and indeed is probably not "supposed" to be) evident when viewing real-world scenes, the abundance of conte ...
Constructing and updating an internal model of verticality is fundamental for maintaining an erect posture and facilitating visuo-spatial processing. The judgment of the visual vertical (VV) has been intensively studied in psychophysical investigations and ...
How the brain integrates visual information across time into coherent percepts is an open question. Here, we presented two verniers with opposite offset directions one after the other. A vernier consists of two vertical bars that are horizontally offset. W ...
Integration of multimodal information is essential for the integrative response of the brain and is thought to be accomplished mostly in sensory association areas. However, available evidences in humans and monkeys indicate that this process begins already ...
How representations of visual objects are maintained across changes in viewpoint is a central issue in visual perception. Whether neural processes underlying view-invariant recognition involve distinct subregions within extrastriate visual cortex for disti ...
In the past decade, effects of pattern coherence have indicated that perception during binocular rivalry does not result solely from reciprocal inhibitory competition between monocular channels. In this study we were interested in feature selectivity both ...
When presented with dynamic scenes, the brain integrates visual elements across space and time. Such non-retinotopic processing has been intensively studied from a psychophysical point of view, but little is known about the underlying neural processes. Her ...
