Fast Recruitment of Recurrent Inhibition in the Cat Visual Cortex
Neurons of the same column in L4 of the cat visual cortex are likely to share the same sensory input from the same region of the visual field. Using visually-guided patch clamp recordings we investigated the biophysical properties of the synapses of neighboring layer 4 neurons. We recorded synaptic connections between all types of excitatory and inhibitory neurons in L4. The E-E, E-I, and I-E c...
متن کاملSensory cancellation of self-movement facilitates visual motion detection.
The nervous system continuously predicts the sensory consequences of self-generated actions. These predictions can be used to cancel self-generated sensory information. It has been hypothesized that this cancellation process may serve to increase the perceptual sensitivity to unpredicted external events. Here, we provide the first empirical evidence for this idea. Participants were required to ...
متن کاملAnalysis of the No Return Point Hypothesis: The Effect of Audio and Visual Stimuli in the Fast Movements Inhibition
Background. The No Return Point hypothesis is one of the research areas that has been done in line with the motor program. In this hypothesis emphasized an inability to inhibition move after its start by the motor program. Several factors are affecting the mechanism of this inhibition. Objectives. In this study, we investigate the effects of audio and visual stimuli on blocking quick moves to ...
متن کاملFast Visual Detection of Changes in 3D Motion
A method is proposed for the fast detection of objects that maneuver in the visual eld of a monocular observer. Such cases are common in natural environments where the 3D motion parameters of certain objects (e.g. animals) change considerably over time. The approach taken conforms with the theory of purposive vision, according to which vision algorithms should solve many, speci c problems under...
متن کاملVisual Cortex: Seeing Motion
What happens in primary visual cortex (V1) when we look at a complex moving image? While motion responses have been investigated thoroughly at the level of single neurons [1–4], studies of motion representation at the level of maps have been restricted to stimuli composed of long bars. These stimuli are inherently ambiguous as to their direction of motion [1]. A recent study by Fitzpatrick and ...
