The perception and production of regular geometric shapes, a characteristic trait of human cultures since prehistory, has unknown neural mechanisms. Behavioral studies suggest that humans are attuned to discrete regularities such as symmetries and pa...

The human brain excels at complex tasks with remarkable efficiency, adaptability, and resilience, making it a powerful source of inspiration for AI. Here, we present a neural dynamics model inspired by the primate dorsal visual pathway, a circuit cru...
This narrative review evaluates the current status, potential value, key challenges, and future directions of Microsoft HoloLens 2 mixed reality (MR) technology, with a particular focus on its built-in eye tracking and visual perception functions, in...
Remarkably, human brains have the ability to accurately perceive and process the real-world size of objects, despite vast differences in distance and perspective. While previous studies have delved into this phenomenon, distinguishing the processing ...
. Modeling neural encoding of visual stimuli often uses deep neural networks (DNNs) to predict human brain response to external stimuli. However, each DNN depends on networks tailored for computer vision tasks, resulting in suboptimal brain correspon...
Naturalistic scenes are of key interest for visual perception, but controlling their perceptual and semantic properties is challenging. Previous work on naturalistic scenes has frequently focused on collections of discrete images with considerable ph...
Studies in neuroscience inspired progress in the design of artificial neural networks (ANNs), and, vice versa, ANNs provide new insights into the functioning of brain circuits. So far, the focus has been on how ANNs can help to explain the tuning of ...
Expectation is beneficial for adaptive behavior through quickly deducing plausible interpretations of information. The profile and underlying neural computations of this process, however, remain unclear. When participants expected a grating with a sp...
Prefrontal cortex (PFC) is known to modulate the visual system to favor goal-relevant information by accentuating task-relevant stimulus dimensions. Does the brain broadly re-configures itself to optimize performance by stretching visual representati...
Research on level 1 visual perspective taking (L1-VPT) has been debating whether L1-VPT is an implicit socially rooted or rather a non-social process. Using online versions of the Dot Perspective Task by Samson et al. (Journal of Experimental Psychol...
