Functional imaging reveals how selective attention influences neural geometry in auditory representations, suggesting significant category effects.

Selective attention reshapes the geometry of neural population responses in auditory contexts, enhancing specific representations.
In a study examining responses to sounds, attended representations were drawn significantly closer to their templates, indicating enhanced processing.
Analysis of fMRI data combined with representational geometry showed that attentional effects vary based on the complexity of soundscapes.
Findings highlight that attentional modulation depends on sound category, revealing a broader implication for understanding auditory perception.

Pedersini et al. (2025) studied this question.
