Understanding of the brain and the principles governing neural processing requires theories
that are parsimonious, can account for a diverse set of phenomena, and can make testable …

The processing of multisensory signals is crucial for effective interaction with the
environment, but our ability to perform this vital function changes as we age. In the first part …

Human perceptual decisions are often described as optimal. Critics of this view have argued
that claims of optimality are overly flexible and lack explanatory power. Meanwhile …

The ability to accurately recognize, localize and separate sound sources is fundamental to
any audio-visual perception task. Historically, these abilities were tackled separately, with …

The precision of multisensory perception improves when cues arising from the same cause
are integrated, such as visual and vestibular heading cues for an observer moving through a …

Background Persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD) is a functional vestibular
disorder characterized by persistent dizziness, unsteadiness, and non-spinning vertigo. It is …

At any moment in time, streams of information reach the brain through the different senses.
Given this wealth of noisy information, it is essential that we select information of relevance …

Auditory localization is a fundamental ability that allows to perceive the spatial location of a
sound source in the environment. The present work aims to provide a comprehensive …

Navigating by path integration requires continuously estimating one's self-motion. This
estimate may be derived from visual velocity and/or vestibular acceleration signals …

Integrating information across sensory systems is a critical step toward building a cohesive
representation of the environment and one's body, and as illustrated by numerous illusions …
