Contrast and stimulus duration dependence of perceptual surround suppression in older adults
Most natural visual tasks involve the extraction of visual features from suprathreshold contrast backgrounds, hence an understanding of how ageing impacts on contrast mechanisms is essential to understand elderly visual function. Previous studies have revealed increased perceptual surround suppression of contrast in older adults. We aimed to determine whether such age-related effects depend on ...
متن کاملContrast-dependence of surround suppression in Macaque V1: Experimental testing of a recurrent network model
Neuronal responses in primary visual cortex (V1) to optimally oriented high-contrast stimuli in the receptive field (RF) center are suppressed by stimuli in the RF surround, but can be facilitated when the RF center is stimulated at low contrast. The neural circuits and mechanisms for surround modulation are still unknown. We previously proposed that topdown feedback connections mediate suppres...
متن کاملModeling grating contrast discrimination dippers: The role of surround suppression.
We consider the role of nonlinear inhibition in physiologically realistic multineuronal models of V1 to predict the dipper functions from contrast discrimination experiments with sinusoidal gratings of different geometries. The dip in dipper functions has been attributed to an expansive transducer function, which itself is attributed to two nonlinear inhibitory mechanisms: contrast normalizatio...

متن کاملVisual Contextual Effects of Orientation, Contrast, Flicker, and Luminance: All Are Affected by Normal Aging
The perception of a visual stimulus can be markedly altered by spatial interactions between the stimulus and its surround. For example, a grating stimulus appears lower in contrast when surrounded by a similar pattern of higher contrast: a phenomenon known as surround suppression of perceived contrast. Such center-surround interactions in visual perception are numerous and arise from both corti...
