Fast readout of object identity from macaque inferior temporal cortex.
Understanding the brain computations leading to object recognition requires quantitative characterization of the information represented in inferior temporal (IT) cortex. We used a biologically plausible, classifier-based readout technique to investigate the neural coding of selectivity and invariance at the IT population level. The activity of small neuronal populations (approximately 100 rand...
متن کاملShape tuning in macaque inferior temporal cortex.
Neurons in the inferior temporal cortex (IT) of the macaque fire more strongly to some shapes than others, but little is known about how to characterize this shape tuning more generally, because most previous studies have used somewhat arbitrary variations in the stimuli with unspecified magnitudes of the changes. The present investigation studied the modulation of IT cells to nonaccidental pro...
متن کاملEffects of illumination intensity and direction on object coding in macaque inferior temporal cortex.
Single unit activity in area TE was recorded from two macaques as they viewed 3D appearing rendered objects that were illuminated from different directions (without cast shadows) and intensities of illumination. The average modulation produced by changes in illumination intensity or direction was rather moderate, with the majority of the neurons responding invariantly to these lighting variable...
متن کاملRepresentation of Perceptual Color Space in Macaque Posterior Inferior Temporal Cortex (the V4 Complex)
The lateral geniculate nucleus is thought to represent color using two populations of cone-opponent neurons [L vs M; S vs (L + M)], which establish the cardinal directions in color space (reddish vs cyan; lavender vs lime). How is this representation transformed to bring about color perception? Prior work implicates populations of glob cells in posterior inferior temporal cortex (PIT; the V4 co...
متن کاملEncoding of Stimulus Probability in Macaque Inferior Temporal Cortex
Optimal perceptual decisions require sensory signals to be combined with prior information about stimulus probability. Although several theories propose that probabilistic information about stimulus occurrence is encoded in sensory cortex, evidence from neuronal recordings has not yet fully supported this view. We recorded activity from single neurons in inferior temporal cortex (IT) while monk...
