··6 min readCurrent deep learning models are able to create images strongly enough to activate specific neurons in the visual cortex. However, researchers say more accurate artificial neural network models should be developed to help produce more accurate control.
Differences in activity between the left and right superior colliculi help researchers predict whether an animal was seeing an event.
When a neuron receives information, dendrites functionally work together to adjust for the complexity of the input.
Transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) helps boost visual learning in patients with chronic cortical blindness, leading to a recovery in motion processing within 10 days of exposure. The effects of the tRNS treatment appear to last for at least six months.
Researchers reveal how the brain makes sense of still objects and motion to help us navigate the world around us.
Researchers succeed in restoring the ability of adult mice to form new connections in the brain.
Using computer models, researchers discover melanopsin pigment in the eye is more sensitive to light than rhodopsin pigment.
Neuroimaging study sheds new light on how we perceive colors. Activity in higher visual cortex areas matched the colors test subjects saw.
According to researchers, dressmakers are the most eagle eyed.
Aphantasia is marked by the inability to generate visual images in the mind's eye. Researchers explore the neurobiological basis for the disorder.
