Dissecting the neural processes supporting perceptual learning

Wu Li · Beijing Normal University, Beijing, China

…In particular, repeated training in a perceptual task can lead to a significant improvement in the trained task—a phenomenon known as perceptual learning. There has been a long-standing debate about the mechanisms of perceptual learning. In this talk, I will present results from our series of electrophysiological studies. These studies have consistently shown that perceptual learning is mediated by concerted changes in both perceptual and cogn

Understanding the role of neural heterogeneity in learning

Nicolas Perez-Nieves · Imperial College London

…resulted in more stable and robust training and improved training performance, especially for tasks with a higher temporal structure. Moreover, the optimal distribution of parameters found by training was found to be similar to experimental observations. These findings suggest that heteroge
