In particular, rate expectancy theory (RET; Gallistel & Gibbon, 2000) makes the prediction not shared by the other theories that ITI reinforcers should hav ...

In the present case the axons of cells in the vestibular and reticular nuclei that run directly to the motor nucleus and are stimulated by the shock are not called intemuncials because they are made to play the role of afferent fibers; but if the shocks were d ...

To quantitatively evaluate the performance gain achieved by the strategies described in the previous section, the network's performance is measured by calculating the capacity of the network as a function of synaptic deletion levels. The capacity is measured as the maximal number of memories which c ...

Psychophysics

Psychophysics quantitatively investigates the relationship between physical stimuli and the sensations and perceptions they affect. Psychophysics has been described as ""the scientific study of the relation between stimulus and sensation"" or, more completely, as ""the analysis of perceptual processes by studying the effect on a subject's experience or behaviour of systematically varying the properties of a stimulus along one or more physical dimensions"".Psychophysics also refers to a general class of methods that can be applied to study a perceptual system. Modern applications rely heavily on threshold measurement, ideal observer analysis, and signal detection theory.Psychophysics has widespread and important practical applications. For example, in the study of digital signal processing, psychophysics has informed the development of models and methods of lossy compression. These models explain why humans perceive very little loss of signal quality when audio and video signals are formatted using lossy compression.
