Research Topic<\/h5>\n

Predictive vision as a basis for stable perceptual representation<\/p>\n

There is a delay in perception due to the time it takes for neural transmission and the integration of information from the moment visual stimuli reach the retina. To address this delay and construct a stable perceptual world, the brain must predict the present. This research aims to comprehensively understand the neural coding that enables such “predictions,” focusing on the fundamental visual processing.<\/p>\n
