Local Aggregation for Unsupervised Learning of Visual Embeddings (2019, background): “In contrast to the inefficiency of unsupervised learning in artificial neural networks, humans and non-human primates develop powerful and domain-general visual systems with very few labels [46, 6, 70, 1, 24, 5, 65].”
Adolescence as a Sensitive Period of Brain Development. (2015, neutral): “Just as early development is characterised by multiple sensitive periods [9,13], adolescence is not proposed to be a sensitive period per se; instead, it is proposed that there are certain periods in adolescence during which a specific input from the environment is expected.”
Functional connectivity of visual cortex in the blind follows retinotopic organization principles (2015, background): “…vision, still depends on intact sensory experience and pattern vision during a sequence of hyper-plastic critical developmental periods (Penn and Shatz, 1999; Hensch, 2005; Lewis and Maurer, 2005; Bengoetxea et al., 2012; Espinosa and Stryker, 2012; Voss, 2013; but see also Kalia et al., 2014).”
Origins of task-specific sensory-independent organization in the visual and auditory brain: neuroscience evidence, open questions and clinical implications. (2015, neutral): “However, this optimistic view and rehabilitation protocol proposed above may not suffice, given evidence of deficient low-level visual information in sight restored adult patients [62,74,75].”
Stereoscopic 3D-TV: Visual Comfort (2011, background): “In children, most visual functions reach adult-like levels by 6–8 years of age [92], [93], although full development might require a longer period till the teen years [94].”
Evolved Sensitive Periods in Learning (2013, background): “Later research (see for instance Lewis and Maurer (2005)) has shown that sensory systems have several critical periods that affect different parts of the sensory system at different stages of development.”
The neural basis of lip-reading capabilities is altered by early visual deprivation. (2010, background): “Lewis and Maurer (2005) define three types of sensitive periods: The sensitive period of visually driven normal development, the sensitive period for damage through abnormal visual input, and the sensitive period ∗ Corresponding author.”
Object Perception-Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Psychology (2020, background): “…visual experience has been shown to affect acuity, peripheral vision, motion perception, and binocular (stereo) vision; interestingly, there are different critical periods for different visual functions, each with a characteristic time course and duration (for review, see Lewis & Maurer, 2005).”
Reading with sounds: sensory substitution selectively activates the visual word form area in the blind. (2012, result): “This claim was supported by early studies of a critical period for developing normal sight in animals (Wiesel and Hubel, 1963) and humans (Lewis and Maurer, 2005).”
Emergence of categorical face perception after extended early-onset blindness (2017, background): “Taken together, acuity outcomes on the one hand and face discrimination performance on the other lead us to conclude that the notion of critical periods needs to be defined differently for different visual skills, rather than as a unitary construct applicable to all aspects of visual development (27”
The development of oscillatory and aperiodic resting state activity is linked to a sensitive period in humans (2023, background): “By contrast, other functions such as visual acuity (Lewis and Maurer, 2005), stereovision (Tytla et al.”
