Sowden, Paul Timothy. "On perceptual learning." Thesis, University of Surrey, 1995. http://epubs.surrey.ac.uk/771375/.

Abstract:

A fundamental concern in Psychology is the extent to which we learn to perceive our world and, further, the degree to which perception remains modif"Iable even in adulthood. Yet despite the significance of these concerns, perceptual learning has been somewhat sporadically studied, and often only at a phenomenal level. This thesis proposes a new theoretical framework for perceptual learning, and argues that a multiplicity of processes have been examined under this single term. The empirical work reported in this thesis examines a range of these different learning processes, and illustrates meth

Abstract:

The empirical work reported in the current thesis set out to explore the relationship between perceptual expertise, categorical perception (CP) and perceptual learning. Evidence to support the idea that the way people organise the world into categories can qualitatively affect their perception of it has been provided by CP research. Recent work indicates that categorisation experience can lead to enhanced sensitivity to diagnostic stimulus features and is consistent with the possibility that, as experts have learned to distinguish among objects, they have also acquired new ways of perceptually

Abstract:

Unsupervised exposure to confusable stimuli facilitates later discrimination between them. It is known that the schedule of exposure is critical to this perceptual learning effect, but several issues remain unresolved: I) it is not known whether a mechanism of mutual inhibition, taken by some to underpin perceptual learning in rats, is also evident in humans. II) Although simultaneous presentation of the to-be- discriminated stimuli has been suggested by some to be the most efficient way to promote perceptual learning, the associative mechanisms proposed by others (e.g., that of mutual inhibit

Previous studies have indicated that concurrent multimodal stimulation can interfere with prenatal perceptual learning. However, the nature and extent of this interference is not well understood.

Abstract:

Practice improves performance on many basic auditory tasks. However, while the phenomenon of auditory perceptual learning is well established, little is known about the mechanisms underlying such improvements. What is learned during auditory perceptual learning? This thesis attempts to answer this question by applying models of performance to behavioural response data, and examining which parameters change with practice. On a simple pure tone discrimination task, learning is shown to primarily represent a reduction in internal noise, with encoding efficiency, attentiveness and bias appearing i

Abstract:

Perceptual learning, when applied to speech, describes experience-evoked adjustments to the cognitive-perceptual processes required for recognising spoken language. It provides the theoretical basis for improved understanding of a speech signal that is initially difficult to perceive. Reduced intelligibility is a frequent and debilitating symptom of dysarthria, a speech disorder associated with neurological disease or injury. The current thesis investigated perceptual learning of dysarthric speech, by jointly considering intelligibility improvements and associated learning mechanisms for liste

Abstract:

Although familiarity with a talker or accent is known to facilitate perception, it is not clear what underlies this phenomenon. Previous research has focused primarily on whether listeners can learn to associate novel phonetic characteristics with low-level units such as features or phonemes. However, this neglects the potential role of phonetic information at many other levels of representation. To address this shortcoming, this thesis investigated perceptual learning of systematic phonetic detail relating to higher levels of linguistic structure, including prosodic, grammatical and morpholog

Abstract:

This thesis investigated the theoretical processes that underlie perceptual and functional categorisation: perceptual categorisation refers to the process of forming an integrated representation of a pattern of stimulation and functional categorisation refers to the process of integrating otherwise equivalent patterns of stimulation according to their uses or consequences. Investigation of perceptual categorisation in people and of functional categorisation in rats provided results that place important constraints on the nature of the involvement of elemental and configural processes.

Abstract:

Listeners use perceptual learning to rapidly adapt to manipulated speech input. Examination of this learning process can reveal the pathways used during speech perception. By assessing generalization of perceptually learned categorization boundaries, others have used perceptual learning to help determine whether abstract units are necessary for listeners and models of speech perception. Here we extend this approach to address the inverse issue of specificity. In these experiments we have sought to discover the levels of specificity for which listeners can learn variation in phonetic contrasts.

Abstract:

Web crawlers are a fundamental component of web application scanners and are used to explore the attack surface of web applications. Crawlers work as follows. First, for each page, they extract URLs and UI elements that may lead to new pages. Then, they use a depth-first or breadth-first tree traversal to explore new pages. In this approach, crawlers cannot distinguish between "terminate user account" and "next page" buttons and they will click on both without taking into account the consequences of their actions. The goal of this project is to devise a new family of crawlers that builds on

In this work, the data-driven approach to representation learning of facial expressions is taken. The methodology is built upon Variational Autoencoders and eliminates the appearance-related features from the latent space by using neutral facial expressions as additional inputs.

Abstract:

Psychophysical studies of perceptual learning find that perceivers only improve the accuracy of their perception on stimuli similar to what they were trained on. In contrast, speech perception studies of perceptual learning find generalization to novel contexts when words contain a modified ambiguous sound. This dissertation seeks to resolve the apparent conflict between these findings by framing the results in terms of attentional sets. Attention can be oriented towards comprehension of the speaker’s intended meaning or towards perception of a speaker’s pronunciation. Attention is proposed to

In this thesis I present a series of experiments that aimed to examine the effect of experience on the subsequent discriminability of similar stimuli. It has oft been observed that preexposure to stimuli enhances the rate at which a discrimination with similar stimuli will progress, or will reduce the amount of generalisation that occurs to similar stimuli following training. In animals, this effect has typically been studied using the conditioned taste aversion paradigm. Here, I describe a novel experimental method whereby animals learn to discriminate between textured stimuli, and do so diff

Abstract:

In human perception, visual perceptual learning is a well-known effect, showing that the adult neural system can achieve long-term enhanced performance on a visual task as a result of visual experience (Fahle & Poggio, 2002). The mechanisms underlying visual perceptual learning were debated for decades. Task-relevance, attention and awareness were thought necessary for perceptual learning (Shiu & Pashler, 1992; Ahissar & Hochstein, 1993; Schoups, Vogel, Qian, and Orban, 2001), but this view has been challenged by the discovery of task-irrelevant perceptual learning (TIPL), which occurs for tas
