Learning selective top-down control enhances performance in a visual categorization task Top-down control in learning a categorization task
We model the putative neuronal and synaptic mechanisms involved in learning a visual categorization task, taking inspiration from single-cell recordings in inferior temporal cortex (ITC). Our working hypothesis is that learning the categorization task involves both bottom-up, ITC to pre-frontal cortex (PFC), and top-down (PFC to ITC) synaptic plasticity, and that the latter enhances the selecti...
متن کاملTop-down control of visual sensory processing during an ocular motor response inhibition task.
The study addressed whether top-down control of visual cortex supports volitional behavioral control in a novel antisaccade task. The hypothesis was that anticipatory modulations of visual cortex activity would differentiate trials on which subjects knew an anti- versus a pro-saccade response was required. Trials consisted of flickering checkerboards in both peripheral visual fields, followed b...
متن کاملVisual mismatch negativity in the dorsal stream is independent of concurrent visual task difficulty
The manipulation of attention can produce mismatch negativity-like components that are not necessarily connected to the unintentional sensory registration of the violation of probability-based regularity. For clinical purposes, attentional bias should be quantified because it can vary substantially among subjects and can decrease the specificity of the examination. This experiment targets the r...
متن کاملThe visual mismatch negativity is sensitive to
We investigated the sensitivity of visual mismatch negativity (vMMN) to an abstract and nonsemantic category, the vertical mirror symmetry. Event-related potentials were recorded to random and symmetric square patterns, delivered in passive oddball paradigm (participants played a video game). In one of the conditions, symmetric patterns were frequent (standard) stimuli and the random patterns w...
متن کاملTop-down control of visual attention.
Top-down visual attention improves perception of selected stimuli and that improvement is reflected in the neural activity at many stages throughout the visual system. Recent studies of top-down attention have elaborated on the signatures of its effects within visual cortex and have begun identifying its causal basis. Evidence from these studies suggests that the correlates of spatial attention...
