A MODEL OF PERCEPTUAL LEARNING INTEGRATED WITH TOP-DOWN INFORMATION

摘要

Recent psychological and neurobiological experiments results show that top-down information such as attention and other higher cortical processes play an important role in perceptual learning issues, while current neural network models, mostly concerned with bottom-up information process only, do not combine the top-down information.In this paper, we give a model of perceptual learning that takes top-down information into account, and explain the mechanism of this model in the framework of information geometry.
