Predictive Processes and Statistical Learning

Talk

The vast majority of studies of visual perception have measured behavioral and neural responses to unpredictable, suddenly onsetting stimuli. In natural vision, however, saccades are typically used to bring relevant information, glimpsed with extrafoveal vision, into the fovea for further processing. This raises the question of whether the extrafoveal preview influences visual object...

4. Cardio-audio regularity encoding during human wakefulness, sleep and coma

Predictive Processes and Statistical Learning

Talk

The human brain can encode temporal regularities based on synchronizing sound onsets to the ongoing heartbeat. Here we investigated whether cardio-audio regularity processing can occur in the absence of perceptual awareness by administering auditory sequences while recording continuous electrocardiography and electroencephalography in a cohort of comatose patients (N=65) i.e. in a deep...
