Decoding working memory of stimulus contrast in early visual cortex (2013)
Journal Article
Xing, Y., Ledgeway, T., McGraw, P. V., & Schluppeck, D. (2013). Decoding working memory of stimulus contrast in early visual cortex. Journal of Neuroscience, 33(25), https://doi.org/10.1523/JNEUROSCI.3754-12.2013

Most studies of the early stages of visual analysis (V1-V3) have focused on the properties of neurons that support processing of elemental features of a visual stimulus or scene, such as local contrast, orientation, or direction of motion. Recent evi... Read More about Decoding working memory of stimulus contrast in early visual cortex.

Luminance cues constrain chromatic blur discrimination in natural scene stimuli (2013)
Journal Article
Sharman, R. J., McGraw, P. V., & Peirce, J. W. (2013). Luminance cues constrain chromatic blur discrimination in natural scene stimuli. Journal of Vision, 13(4), Article 14. https://doi.org/10.1167/13.4.14

Introducing blur into the color components of a natural scene has very little effect on its percept, whereas blur introduced into the luminance component is very noticeable. Here we quantify the dominance of luminance information in blur detection an... Read More about Luminance cues constrain chromatic blur discrimination in natural scene stimuli.

A Weber-like law for perceptual learning (2013)
Journal Article
Astle, A. T., Li, R. W., Webb, B. S., Levi, D. M., & McGraw, P. V. (2013). A Weber-like law for perceptual learning. Scientific Reports, 3, Article 1158. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep01158

What determines how much an organism can learn? One possibility is that the neural factors that limit sensory performance prior to learning, place an upper limit on the amount of learning that can take place. We tested this idea by comparing learning... Read More about A Weber-like law for perceptual learning.
