Perceptual learning and visual cognition constitute an interdisciplinary field that investigates the brain’s remarkable capacity to refine visual processing through experience. By examining how ...

The field of neural models of perception and learning has witnessed substantial progress in recent years, combining insights from computational neuroscience, cognitive psychology and artificial ...

Researchers challenge the "efficiency" theory of the brain, showing that neurons become more coordinated and share more information as learning occurs.

Despite decades of research, the mechanisms behind fast flashes of insight that change how a person perceives their world, termed "one-shot learning," have remained unknown. A mysterious type of ...

A new study challenges a long-standing theory in neuroscience and could reshape how scientists think about perception, learning disorders, and ...

A collaboration between SISSA’s Physics and Neuroscience groups has taken a step forward in understanding how memories are stored and retrieved in the brain. The study, recently published in Neuron, ...

Here's why most adults aren't "smarter than an 8th grader" when it comes to visual perceptual learning (VPL). Neuroscientists at Brown University recently discovered that school-aged children ...
