The orientation selectivity of color-responsive neurons in macaque V1.
Form has a strong influence on color perception. We investigated the neural basis of the form-color link in macaque primary visual cortex (V1) by studying orientation selectivity of single V1 cells for pure color patterns. Neurons that responded to color were classified, based on cone inputs and spatial selectivity, into chromatically single-opponent and double-opponent groups. Single-opponent ...
متن کاملOrientation selectivity in macaque V1: diversity and laminar dependence.
We studied the steady-state orientation selectivity of single neurons in macaque primary visual cortex (V1). To analyze the data, two measures of orientation tuning selectivity, circular variance and orientation bandwidth, were computed from the tuning curves. Circular variance is a global measure of the shape of the tuning curve, whereas orientation bandwidth is a local measure of the sharpnes...
متن کاملResponses of macaque V1 neurons to binocular orientation differences.
Interocular differences in orientation occur during binocular viewing of a surface slanted in depth. These orientation disparities could be exploited by the visual system to provide information about surface slant, but gradients of positional disparity provide an equally effective means to the same end. We examined the encoding of orientation disparities in V1 neurons that were recorded from tw...
متن کاملColor contrast in macaque V1.
We explored the neural basis for spatial color contrast (red looks redder surrounded by green) and temporal color contrast (red looks redder if preceded by green) in primary visual cortex (V1) of the alert macaque. Using pairs of stimuli, we found a subset of neurons that gave stronger responses to sequences of red and green spots and stronger responses to adjacent red and green spots. These ce...
متن کاملMechanisms of Direction Selectivity in Macaque V1
Mechanisms underlying direction selectivity were studied in V1 of alert fixating macaque monkeys. Some direction-selective cells showed delayed asymmetric inhibition, some showed a shifting excitatory time course across the receptive field, and some showed both. Both the direction of the spatial offset of the inhibition and the direction of the shift in excitatory response time course correlate...
