Information Processing Strategies and Pathways in the Primate Visual System
The mammalian visual pathway is an amazingly complex and intricate system, capable of processing vast amounts of sensory information for use in the precise control of both immediate and long-term behavior. In many respects, the system is very well engineered for efficient extraction and encoding of information. To give just one example, it is well known that the spacing between photoreceptors i...
متن کاملHow parallel are the primate visual pathways?
The visual system, like all sensory systems, contains parallel pathways (see Stone 1983). Recently, much emphasis has been placed on the relationship between two subcortical and two cortical pathways. It has been suggested that the cortical and subcortical pathways are continuous, so that distinct channels of information that arise in the retina remain segregated up to the highest levels of vis...
متن کاملVisual Processing in the Primate Brain
Vision is the most widely studied and dominant sensory system in human and nonhuman primates. Of the total surface area of the cerebral cortex roughly 50% in macaque monkey, and 20 to 30% in human, is largely or exclusively involved in visual processing (Van Essen, 2004; Van Essen & Drury, 1997). Intensive study of vision in nonhuman primates, and particularly the macaque, has produced a detail...
