Neural Stochastic Dynamics of Perceptual Decision Making
Recent studies have identified some brain regions involved in the decision process for simple perceptual tasks, and have provided insight into how sensory information is evaluated before the commitment to a motor response. To understand the dynamical principles of the decision process, and how they emerge from the interaction of interconnected neurons, computational models have been proposed ba...
متن کاملStochastic Dynamics Underlying Cognitive Stability and Flexibility
Cognitive stability and flexibility are core functions in the successful pursuit of behavioral goals. While there is evidence for a common frontoparietal network underlying both functions and for a key role of dopamine in the modulation of flexible versus stable behavior, the exact neurocomputational mechanisms underlying those executive functions and their adaptation to environmental demands a...
متن کاملCortical Dynamics Underlying Waves of Perceptual Dominance: Gestalt Psychology Vindicated
During the first part of the last century the Gestalt psychologists proposed that the dynamics evident in visual perception were attributable to ever-changing electrical potentials within topograpically organized brain fields (Kohler, 1920). Dynamic field theory, as it was called, was subsequently discredited on grounds that the brain does not comprise a field but, instead, a richly interconnec...
متن کاملOscillatory Network Dynamics in Perceptual Decision-Making
Synchronized oscillations of ensembles of neurons in the brain underlie human cognition and behaviors. Neuronal network oscillations can be described by the physics of coupled dynamical systems. This dissertation examines the dynamic network activities in two distinct neurocognitive networks, the salience network (SN) and the ventral temporal cortex-dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (VTC-DLPFC) ne...
متن کاملNeural network models of perceptual learning of angle discrimination
We study neural network models of discriminating between stimuli with two similar angles, using the two-alternative forced choice (2AFC) paradigm. Two network architectures are investigated: a two-layer perceptron network and a gating network. In the two-layer network all hidden units contribute to the decision at all angles, while in the other architecture the gating units select, for each sti...
