Tuning for shape dimensions in macaque inferior temporal cortex.
It is widely assumed that distributed bell-shaped tuning (e.g. Radial Basis functions) characterizes the shape selectivity of macaque inferior temporal (IT) neurons, analogous to the orientation or spatial frequency tuning found in early visual cortex. Demonstrating such tuning properties requires testing the responses of neurons for different values along dimensions of shape. We recorded the r...
متن کاملShape representation in the inferior temporal cortex of monkeys
BACKGROUND The inferior temporal cortex (IT) of the monkey has long been known to play an essential role in visual object recognition. Damage to this area results in severe deficits in perceptual learning and object recognition, without significantly affecting basic visual capacities. Consistent with these ablation studies is the discovery of IT neurons that respond to complex two-dimensional v...
متن کاملThe representation of stimulus familiarity in anterior inferior temporal cortex.
1. The inferior temporal (IT) cortex plays an important role in both short- and long-term memory for visual patterns. Most previous studies of IT neurons have tested their responses in recency memory tasks, which require that the memory lasts only the length of a single behavioral trial, which may be < 1 s. To determine the role of IT neurons in longer lasting memories, we measured their respon...
متن کاملThe inferior temporal cortex: architecture, computation, and representation.
Neurons in the inferior temporal cortex (IT), an area crucially involved in visual object recognition in monkeys, show the visual response properties and anatomical/chemical nature which are distinct from those in the cortical areas that feed visual inputs to the IT. Earlier physiological studies showed that IT neurons have large receptive fields covering the center and contralateral (often bil...
متن کاملIllusory shape representation in the monkey inferior temporal cortex.
Perceived boundaries without physical differences between shape and background are called illusory contours (ICs). ICs and real contours (RCs) activate the early processing stages of the macaque visual pathway and the occipitotemporal areas of the human visual system in a similar way. However, it is not known how these contours are processed further in the highest visual areas. We tested how th...
