Crossmodal integration of sensory signals can improve perception and behavior but requires the signals to occur close in time. Differences in propagation and processing speeds make this difficult. Temporal recalibration is a useful 're-alignment' process by which the point of subjective synchrony is temporally realigned towards an adapted asynchrony. A recent study by Van der Burg et al. (2013). J. Neurosci. 33, 14633-14637 showed temporal recalibration can occur rapidly following a single exposure to a brief audiovisual asynchrony. Using a similar procedure, this study confirms their rapid recalibration effect and shows that it occurs even when the single exposure differs in its auditory and visual features from the test stimulus. Using the same procedure in a unimodal context showed that rapid recalibration does not occur in audition following exposure to asynchronous tones of different frequencies, nor in vision following asynchronous lines differing in colour and orientation. This pattern of results suggests that rapid recalibration is in essence an inter-sensory temporal process. It serves to realign asynchronies between modalities with no selectivity for feature identity and does not operate within modalities.

Article Synopsis
  • The online experiment tested how delayed auditory feedback impacts participants' feelings of control (agency) over tone sequences.
  • Participants practiced reproducing sequences with either immediate or delayed feedback and were later subjected to a scenario where the computer sometimes took over generating tones.
  • Results showed that both agency and simultaneity judgments shifted after experiencing the delay, but the agency judgment changed more significantly, confirming Sugano's earlier findings and demonstrating the potential of online experiments in studying agency.

CNN-based object detection models that strike a balance between performance and speed have been gradually used in polyp detection tasks. Nevertheless, accurately locating polyps within complex colonoscopy video scenes remains challenging since existing methods ignore two key issues: intra-sequence distribution heterogeneity and precision-confidence discrepancy. To address these challenges, we propose a novel Temporal-Spatial self-correction detector (TSdetector), which first integrates temporal-level consistency learning and spatial-level reliability learning to detect objects continuously.

Cross-modal temporal recalibration guarantees stable temporal perception across everchanging environments. Yet, the mechanisms of cross-modal temporal recalibration remain unknown. Here, we conducted an experiment to measure how participants' temporal perception was affected by exposure to audiovisual stimuli with consistent temporal delays.

Importance: Declining mortality in the field of pediatric critical care medicine has shifted practicing clinicians' attention to preserving patients' neurodevelopmental potential as a main objective. Earlier identification of critically ill children at risk for incurring neurologic morbidity would facilitate heightened surveillance that could lead to timelier clinical detection, earlier interventions, and preserved neurodevelopmental trajectory.

Objective: Develop machine-learning models for identifying acquired neurologic morbidity while hospitalized with critical illness and assess correlation with contemporary serum-based, brain injury-derived biomarkers.
