Using advanced brain imaging techniques, researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center have watched how humans use both lower and higher brain processes to learn novel tasks, an advance they say ...

Variable stimuli influence learning processes in the visual system. The World Cup final is in full swing, the stadium is filled to capacity, the fans are roaring, there is a flurry of flashbulbs. A ...

The purpose of this study was to examine if student understanding of new material could be promoted by manipulating the perceptual factors experienced at the time of learning. It was hypothesized that ...

Just as a musician can train to more sharply distinguish subtle differences in pitch, mammals can improve their ability to interpret hearing, vision, and other senses with practice. This process, ...

Which sleep stage is most important for learning: REM or non-REM? Does sleep improve learning by enhancing skills while people snooze, or by cementing those skills in the brain so that they're less ...

Here's why most adults aren't "smarter than an 8th grader" when it comes to visual perceptual learning (VPL). Neuroscientists at Brown University recently discovered that school-aged children ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . Eye movement behavior and certain spatial properties that have adapted to vision loss may be evidence of the ...

Common wisdom says that you learn better if you study or practice over a period of time, with breaks between study periods, rather than trying to cram everything into a marathon session. New research ...

The fundamentals of robotic process automation combined with machine learning capabilities to robotize the mundane tasks, plus learning to do a job even better, is what intelligent process automation ...
