The richness of perceptual experience, as well as its usefulness for guiding behaviour, depends on the synthesis of information across multiple senses. Recent decades have witnessed a surge in our understanding of how the brain combines sensory cues. Much of this research has been guided by one of two distinct approaches: one is driven primarily by neurophysiological observations, and the other is guided by principles of mathematical psychology and psychophysics. Conflicting results and interpretations have contributed to a conceptual gap between psychophysical and physiological accounts of cue integration, but recent studies of visual-vestibular cue integration have narrowed this gap considerably.
感知体验的丰富性，以及它对指导行为的作用，取决于多个感官信息的综合。最近几十年来，我们对大脑如何整合感官线索的理解有了突飞猛进的发展。这项研究的大部分内容主要受到两种截然不同方法的指导：一种主要受神经生理学观察的驱动，另一种则受数学心理学和心理物理学原理的指导。有冲突的结果和解释导致了 cue 整合的心理物理学和生理学解释之间存在概念上的差距，但最近对视觉-前庭 cue 整合的研究大大缩小了这一差距。
