- Abstract:
- This study designed a goal-directed training system to conduct video learning and ob＜x＞ject transfer tests on pigeons. The behavioral experiments consisted of three phases: pigeon screening and adaptation, video learning, and ob＜x＞ject transfer testing. Electrodes were then implanted in the MVL nucleus to record neural signals during the recognition of video and ob＜x＞ject targets. The power spectrum before and after target recognition was calculated using the Welch method, identifying the characteristic frequency bands associated with target recognition in the pigeons MVL brain region. Finally, a brain functional network was constructed ba＜x＞sed on phase-locking value (PLV), and features such as average node degree, clustering coefficient, and global efficiency were extracted. The behavioral results showed that video learning significantly improved the pigeons ability to recognize ob＜x＞jects, confirming the brains capability for transfer learning in visual cognition. The analysis of brain functional network features in the MVL nucleus during visual target recognition suggested that it plays a crucial role in both visual target recognition and visual transfer learning. The MVL, as a higher-order visual nucleus, may extract common features between video and physical ob＜x＞jects in visual target recognition.
