The orientation-dependent visual spatial cut-off frequency in a spider.
Cupiennius salei (Araneae, Ctenidae) has, like most spiders, eight camera-type eyes. The anterior median eyes are called principal eyes and have a movable retina; all of the other eyes are referred to as secondary eyes and are equipped with a reflecting tapetum. The photoreceptors in the secondary eyes are arranged in rows on the tapetum and the inter-receptor angle along such a row is smaller ...
متن کاملFlicker-induced eye movements and the behavioural temporal cut-off frequency in a nocturnal spider.
We investigated changes in the eye muscle activity in the spider Cupiennius salei as a response to temporal intensity modulations. These spiders are known to enhance eye muscle activity in their principal eyes when moving stimuli are detected in the secondary eyes. We measured the activity of the dorsal eye muscle using a small telemetric unit attached to the spiders' prosoma and confronted the...
متن کاملOptimal High Frequency Cut-off in SWAN Wave Model
This study investigates the importance of selecting an appropriate cut-off frequency in the SWAN model when it is applied to areas with limited fetches. In SWAN, the cut-off frequency is a constant value set by user in the model, and its appropriate selection plays an important role in the accuracy and optimization of the wave model; very high value increases the computational cost and might le...
متن کاملRepresentation of spatial frequency and orientation in the visual cortex.
Knowledge of the response of the primary visual cortex to the various spatial frequencies and orientations in the visual scene should help us understand the principles by which the brain recognizes patterns. Current information about the cortical layout of spatial frequency response is still incomplete because of difficulties in recording and interpreting adequate data. Here, we report results ...
متن کاملOrientation Tuning Depends on Spatial Frequency in Mouse Visual Cortex
The response properties of neurons to sensory stimuli have been used to identify their receptive fields and to functionally map sensory systems. In primary visual cortex, most neurons are selective to a particular orientation and spatial frequency of the visual stimulus. Using two-photon calcium imaging of neuronal populations from the primary visual cortex of mice, we have characterized the re...
