Prior probability cues bias sensory encoding with increasing task exposure [PDF]
eLifeWhen observers have prior knowledge about the likely outcome of their perceptual decisions, they exhibit robust behavioural biases in reaction time and choice accuracy.

What mechanisms mediate prior probability effects on rapid-choice decision-making? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2023 Rapid-choice decision-making is biased by prior probability of response alternatives. Conventionally, prior probability effects are assumed to selectively affect, response threshold, which determines the amount of evidence required to trigger a decision.

An empirical investigation into the role of subjective prior probability in searching for potentially missing items [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2015 There are many examples from the scientific literature of visual search tasks in which the length, scope and success rate of the search have been shown to vary according to the searcher's expectations of whether the search target is likely to be present.

Human online adaptation to changes in prior probability. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2019 Optimal sensory decision-making requires the combination of uncertain sensory signals with prior expectations. The effect of prior probability is often described as a shift in the decision criterion. Can observers track sudden changes in probability?

A proposal of prior probability-oriented clustering in feature encoding strategies. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2019 Codebook-based feature encodings are a standard framework for image recognition issues. A codebook is usually constructed by clusterings, such as the k-means and the Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM). A codebook size is an important factor to decide the trade-

Diagnostic testing in the context of high-value care: Incorporating prior probability [PDF]
Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives, 2016 This is the fifth article of a series on fundamental concepts in biostatistics and research. In this article, the author reviews the fundamental concepts in diagnostic testing, prior probability and predictive value, and how they relate to the concept of

Estimating statistical power, posterior probability and publication bias of psychological research using the observed replication rate [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 In this paper, we show how Bayes' theorem can be used to better understand the implications of the 36% reproducibility rate of published psychological findings reported by the Open Science Collaboration. We demonstrate a method to assess publication bias

A Bayesian Inference Based Computational Tool for Parametric and Nonparametric Medical Diagnosis
Diagnostics, 2023 Medical diagnosis is the basis for treatment and management decisions in healthcare. Conventional methods for medical diagnosis commonly use established clinical criteria and fixed numerical thresholds. The limitations of such an approach may result in a
