In the current virtual journal club Dr Di Luca will present findings from a series of psychophysical investigations where he measured sensitivity and bias in the perception of the timing of stimuli. He will present how improved detection with longer sequences and biases in reporting isochrony can be accounted for by optimal statistical predictions. Among his findings was also that the timing of stimuli that occasionally deviate from a regularly paced sequence is perceptually distorted to appear more regular. Such change depends on whether the context these sequences are presented is also regular. Dr Di Luca will present a Bayesian model for the combination of dynamically updated expectations, in the form of a priori probability, with incoming sensory information. These findings contribute to the understanding of how the brain processes temporal information to shape perceptual experiences.
