Perceptual stabilization based on prior information
Since the world around us has spatially and temporally organized structure, the visual system can utilize it as prior knowledge to reduce the various noises inherent in sensory input, leading to stable perception and decision. Serial dependence is a representative example of how the past forms the present: the perception of current stimulus is biased toward previously seen stimuli (e.g., Fischer & Whitney, 2014). In this colloquium, I will present my recent work regarding psychological and neural mechanisms of the serial dependence.
