Multisensory Integration: Space, Time and Superadditivity
The superior colliculus generates and controls eye and head movements based on signals from different senses. The latest research on this structure enhances our understanding of the mechanisms of multisensory integration in the brain.
متن کاملLab 4: Multisensory integration
We first present subjects with visual stimuli v: a low contrast Gaussian blob, very quickly flashed at some position in space xv. The subjects are asked to localize the stimulus position x. We find that the subjects estimates are unbiased on average but display some variability from trial to trial. Their estimates P (x|v) can be modelled using a gaussian distribution with mean xv and variabilit...
متن کاملFacilitation of multisensory integration
Whenever two or more sensory inputs are highly consistent in one or more dimension(s), observers will be more likely to perceive them as a single multisensory event rather than as separate unimodal events. For audiovisual speech, but not for other noncommunicative events, participants exhibit a “unity effect,” whereby they are less sensitive to temporal asynchrony (i.e., that are more likely to...
متن کاملMultisensory Integration and Child Neurodevelopment
A considerable number of cognitive processes depend on the integration of multisensory information. The brain integrates this information, providing a complete representation of our surrounding world and giving us the ability to react optimally to the environment. Infancy is a period of great changes in brain structure and function that are reflected by the increase of processing capacities of ...
متن کاملFeature integration across space, time, and orientation.
The perception of a visual target can be strongly influenced by flanking stimuli. In static displays, performance on the target improves when the distance to the flanking elements increases-presumably because feature pooling and integration vanishes with distance. Here, we studied feature integration with dynamic stimuli. We show that features of single elements presented within a continuous mo...
