| summary | What we perceive at a given instant is to some extent influenced by
past experience. However, the precise nature of this influence has
still to be clarified. In one view of sensory processing, memory and
context effects come after basic feature extraction, which is for the
most part hardwired, and then modulate perceptual outcome. A different
view is that rapid plasticity is pervasive in the system and shapes
perception at many levels of processing, in an adaptive manner. In
this workshop we plan to bring together psychophysicists,
neurophysiologists, and theoreticians, in order to review the evidence
for adaptive processing in sensory perception (audition, vision,
whisker system) and extract some of its functional principles and
benefits.
