mission
research in the computational perception and cognition (CPC) laboratory is aimed at understanding how
prior beliefs and expectations shape perception.
how are these expectations formed?
what are the computations by which they are interacting with sensory
information?
what are the underlying neural processes that perform these computations?
we approach
these questions with the combined effort of theory and experiment. theory provides the hypotheses necessary to derive
models that allow us a quantitative validation with carefully targeted psychophysical and (through
collaboration) electrophysiological experiments.
support
research in the lab is made possible thanks to the support of the following organizations:
