Aging Reduces Center-Surround Antagonism in Visual Motion Processing
Discriminating the direction of motion of a low-contrast pattern becomes easier with increasing stimulus area. However, increasing the size of a high-contrast pattern makes it more difficult for observers to discriminate motion. This surprising result, termed spatial suppression, is thought to be mediated by a form of center-surround suppression found throughout the visual pathway. Here, we exa...
متن کاملCenter-surround antagonism in spatial vision: Retinal or cortical locus?
Mach and Hering had early advanced a model of spatial visual processing featuring an antagonistic interaction between adjoining areas in the visual field. Spatial opponency was one of the first findings when single-unit studies of the retina were begun. Not long afterwards psychophysical experiments revealed a center-surround organization closely matching that found in the mammalian retina. It ...
متن کاملFunction of center-surround antagonism for motion in visual area MT/V5: a modeling study
Neurons in cortical area MT or V5 of primates have a large, modulatory region surrounding the classical receptive field. This 'surround' has been suggested to be involved in motion segmentation, as well as in shape-from-motion processing. Our hypothesis is that it plays a functional role in both. We verify this by modeling the electrophysiological data obtained by Orban and co-workers in the ma...
متن کاملCenter-surround antagonism based on disparity in primate area MT.
Most neurons in primate visual area MT have a large, modulatory region surrounding their classically defined receptive field, or center. The velocity tuning of this "surround" is generally antagonistic to the center, making it potentially useful for detecting image discontinuities on the basis of differential motion. Because classical MT receptive fields are also disparity-selective, one might ...
متن کاملCenter-surround visual motion processing in migraine.
PURPOSE It has been proposed that reduced cortical inhibition might be a key feature of migraine. Here the authors compared migraine and control group performance for two visual motion tasks in which performance was considered to reflect center-surround inhibitory processes. These tasks use the observations that healthy young observers require longer stimulus durations to detect the direction o...
