In motor learning, training a task B can disrupt improvements of performance of a previously learned task A, indicating that learning needs consolidation. An influential study suggested that this is the case also for visual perceptual learning [1]. Using t ...
Perceptual learning is learning to perceive and is essential for all forms of perception and learning. For a long time it was believed that perceptual learning was a simple process suitable as a model for studying general mechanism of learning. Researchers ...
Acute stress regulates different aspects of behavioral learning through the action of stress hormones and neuromodulators. Stress effects depend on stressor's type, intensity, timing, and the learning paradigm. In addition, genetic background of animals mi ...
Perceptual learning is learning to perceive. For example, a radiologist is able to easily identify anomalies in medical images only after extended training. Theoretical and psychophysical studies [1-12] suggest that such improvements of performance are acc ...
Perceptual learning is reward-based. A recent mathematical analysis showed that any reward-based learning system can learn two tasks only when the mean reward is identical for both tasks [Frémaux, Sprekeler and Gerstner, 2010, The Journal of Neuroscience, ...
Perceptual learning improves with most basic stimuli. Interestingly, performance does not improve when stimuli of two types are randomly presented during training (roving). For example, there is no perceptual learning when left or right bisection stimuli w ...
We introduce a class of learning problems where the agent is presented with a series of tasks. Intuitively, if there is a relation among those tasks, then the information gained during execution of one task has value for the execution of another task. Cons ...
We propose an online learning algorithm to tackle the problem of learning under limited computational resources in a teacher-student scenario, over multiple visual cues. For each separate cue, we train an online learning algorithm that sacrifices performan ...
Perceptual learning is the ability to modify perception through practice. As a form of brain plasticity, perceptual learning has been studied for more than thirty years in different fields including psychology, neurophysiology and computational neuroscienc ...
Perceptual learning is the ability to improve perception through practice. Perceptual learning is usually specific for the task and features learned. For example, improvements in performance for a certain stimulus do not transfer if the stimulus is rotated ...
