Probability rather than logic as the basis of perception

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Formal logic may be an inappropriate framework for understanding perception. The responses of neurons at various levels of the sensory hierarchy may be better described in terms of probability than logic. Analysis and modeling of the multisensory responses of neurons in the midbrain provide a case study.
