The N200 amplitude of the motion-onset VEP evoked by a parafoveal grating of variable contrast (0.5-64%), constant speed (2 degrees/s), direction (horizontally rightward), and spatial frequency (2 cpd) was studied before and after adaptation to a stationary or drifting grating (1, 2, or 4 degrees/s rightward or leftward). These results are compared to those for the pattern-appearance VEP. Psychophysical measurements were made simultaneously of the perceived speed. While iso-directional (rightward) adaptation leads to a mean amplitude reduction of 39%, the decrease after counter-directional adaptation has a size of 20%. The post-adaptation matches of perceived speed differ in dependence on the iso-directional adapting speed and decrease on average to 98%, 85%, and 69% of the pre-adapt perceived speed after 1, 2, and 4 degrees/s adapting speeds, respectively. The perceived speed is moderately reduced (83% of the pre-adapt value) after counter-directional adaptation nearly independently of the adapting speed. A model of velocity processing is presented, which enables us to predict the trends of the experimental motion VEP and perceived speed data.

Hearing in categories and speech perception at the "cocktail party".
PLoS One

We aimed to test whether hearing speech in phonetic categories (as opposed to a continuous/gradient fashion) affords benefits to "cocktail party" speech perception. We measured speech perception performance (recognition, localization, and source monitoring) in a simulated 3D cocktail party environment. We manipulated task difficulty by varying the number of additional maskers presented at other spatial locations in the horizontal soundfield (1-4 talkers) and via forward vs.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of combining basketball training with a traditional sensory integration therapy (SIT) vs. a SIT alone in enhancing sensory integration capability among Chinese children diagnosed with mild challenges in sensory integration and sensory processing (CSISP).
Methods: This study comprised a Control group and an Experimental group, both undergoing a 10-week intervention (4 sessions/week, 45 min/session).
In the field of image processing, optical neural networks offer advantages such as high speed, high throughput, and low energy consumption. However, most existing coherent optical neural networks (CONN) rely on coherent light sources to establish transmission models. The use of laser inputs and electro-optic modulation devices at the front end of these neural networks diminishes their computational capability and energy efficiency, thereby limiting their practical applications in object detection tasks.

We introduce a deep learning architecture leveraging human perception of longitudinal variation of diffracted patterns of particles, which enables highly generalizable analysis of 3D particle information with orders of magnitude improvement in processing speed. Trained with minimal synthetic and real holograms of simple particles, our method demonstrates exceptional performance across various challenging cases, including high particle concentrations, significant noise, and a wide range of particle sizes, complex shapes, and optical properties, exceeding the diversity of training datasets.

Predicting the location of moving objects in noisy environments is essential to everyday behavior, like when participating in traffic. Although many objects provide multisensory information, it remains unknown how humans use multisensory information to localize moving objects, and how this depends on expected sensory interference (e.g.
