| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The brain has to know which sensory signals originate from the same external event in order to appropriately integrate information from different sensory modalities and obtain the stable representations of the surrounding environment. While spatiotemporal consistency is one cue to do this task, a prior knowledge acquired from everyday sensory experience (i.e. associative learning) could be another important cue. Using techniques from psychophysics and neuroscience, this study demonstrated the brain mechanisms related to associative learning between visual motion and auditory tone sequence and also showed that the brain generally uses associative learning between attributes of different sensory modalities to realize efficient multisensory binding.
