Abstract:
The visual system continuously adapts to the statistical properties of the environment. In this study, we demonstrated that training significantly enhanced subjects' perceptual sensitivity to co-occurrence statistics in naturalistic textures. The learning effect was specific to the statistical component and spatial location. By examining the time course of learning, we found that learning was accelerated at an untrained location. Our findings establish a link between statistical learning and visual perception, indicating multistage plasticity beyond V1 in the visual hierarchy.
