EEG Investigations of the Temporal Dynamics of Visual Object Categorization in Human Brain
Scholl, Clara Andersen (Georgetown University, 2014)A hallmark of human cognition is the ability to rapidly assign meaning to sensory stimuli. In the domain of vision, it is generally thought that this fast object categorization ability is accomplished by a cortical ... -
Perceptual Learning in the Somatosensory System: Neural Mechanisms of Vibrotactile Categorization and Acoustic-To-Vibrotactile Speech Sensory Substitution
Malone, Patrick Stephen (Georgetown University, 2019)The basic goal of sensory systems is to extract information from the environment in order to guide behavior. Historically, the field of neuroscience has focused on the visual system in the study of sensory processing and ... -
The Effects of Extensive Single Task and Dual Task Training on the Neural Bases of Visual Object Categorization: Escaping the Frontal Bottleneck
Cox, Patrick Harold (Georgetown University, 2017)Perceptual learning of visual categorization has been described as a two-stage model, wherein the tuning of representations in visual areas is sharpened to the physical attributes of the stimuli and dorsolateral prefrontal ...
