Dear all,

We have the pleasure to announce a CBC Seminar, which will be given via Zoom on:

FRIDAY, November 12, 2021, at 12:00 PM CET.

 Uta Noppeney
from Radboud University

invited by Salvador Soto-Faraco

will give a talk entitled  

Making sense of the senses

Abstract: Our senses are constantly bombarded with a myriad of diverse signals. Transforming this ensory cacophony into a coherent percept of our environment relies on solving two computational challenges: First, we need to solve the causal inference problem – deciding whether signals come from a common cause and thus should be integrated, or come from different sources and be treated independently. Second, when there is a common cause, we should integrate signals across the senses weighted in proportion to their sensory reliabilities. I discuss recent research at the behavioural, computational and neural systems level that investigates how the brain addresses these two computational challenges in multisensory perception.
