Predicting responses of nonlinear neurons in monkey striate cortex to complex patterns.
The overwhelming majority of neurons in primate visual cortex are nonlinear. For those cells, the techniques of linear system analysis, used with some success to model retinal ganglion cells and striate simple cells, are of limited applicability. As a start toward understanding the properties of nonlinear visual neurons, we have recorded responses of striate complex cells to hundreds of images,...
متن کاملLuxotonic responses of units in macaque striate cortex.
1. Single units in striate cortex were studied in alert macaques while they viewed a ganzfeld. Of the 385 well-isolated units studied for 10 min to 2 h, 24% gave "luxotonic" responses, i.e., their rate of discharge for 1 min or more in diffuse, featureless, wideangle illumination (20-450 cd/m2) was at least double that during a comparable period in darkness, or vice versa, and not attributable ...
متن کاملHypercomplex cells in the cat's striate cortex.
.here has already been some discussion concerning hierarchical versus parallel processing of information in the striate cortex and I would like to add a few comments. Hubel and Wiesel,' in their classical papers, differentiated three categories of cells in the cat's striate cortex. They further suggested a hierarchical model which would explain the organization of the receptive fields of each t...
متن کاملInputs to directionally selective simple cells in macaque striate cortex.
It is clear that the initial analysis of visual motion takes place in the striate cortex, where directionally selective cells are found that respond to local motion in one direction but not in the opposite direction. Widely accepted motion models postulate as inputs to directional units two or more cells whose spatio-temporal receptive fields (RFs) are approximately 90 degrees out of phase (qua...
متن کاملMagnocellular and parvocellular contributions to the responses of neurons in macaque striate cortex.
Anatomical and physiological studies of the primate visual system have suggested that the signals relayed by the magnocellular and parvocellular subdivisions of the LGN remain segregated in visual cortex. It has been suggested that this segregation may account for the known differences in visual function between the parietal and temporal cortical processing streams in extrastriate visual cortex...
