However, this indirect approach is not very informative about the actual stimulus information processing that takes place in the visual system, e.g. what parts and features of the stimulus are critical in the brightness computation.
Other theories assume a "flat" single-step architecture in which task information and stimulus information are simultaneously considered.
However, an approach that directly assesses and compares how the brain transforms noxious stimulus information into perceptual, motor, and autonomic responses is lacking so far.
Further, stimulus information in spiking (PEV) was significantly higher inside than outside gamma bursts (p = 0.02, n = 146, Wilcoxon rank test).
Specifically, subjects will be tested on altered versions of the original video in which a principled subset of the stimulus information has been isolated or filtered.
Here we report that the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) is a critical locus for the representation and use of prior stimulus information.
I will describe the effects of increased ACh signaling on perceptual learning, visual spatial attention, and encoding of stimulus information in visual cortex.
Statistical dependencies in the responses of sensory neurons govern both the amount of stimulus information conveyed and the means by which downstream neurons can extract it.
The connectivity dynamics indicate a modality-specific propagation of stimulus information from LIFG to IPN for the linguistic modality, and from RIFG to IPN for the extralinguistic modality.
It is thought that individual differences in intelligence may derive in part from differences in the rate of intake and processing of simple stimulus information.
By promoting the use of abstract stimulus information for memory retrieval, we were thus able to show that hemispheric asymmetries in accessing abstract or specific memory representations can modulate ERP correlates of familiarity as well as recollection processes.
