چکیده

A cortical model for motion-in-depth selectivity of complex cells in the visual cortex is proposed. The model is based on a time extension of the phase-based techniques for disparity estimation. We consider the computation of the total temporal derivative of the time-varying disparity through the combination of the responses of disparity energy units. To take into account the physiological plausibility, the model is based on the combinations of binocular cells characterized by different ocular dominance indices. The resulting cortical units of the model show a sharp selectivity for motion-indepth that has been compared with that reported in the literature for real cortical cells.

Emergence of motion-in-depth selectivity in the visual cortex through linear combination of binocular energy complex cells with different ocular dominance

An architectural hypothesis for the origin of motion-in-depth selectivity in the visual cortex is proposed. On the basis of a time extension of the phase-based techniques for disparity estimation, we consider the computation of the total temporal derivative of the time-varying disparity through the combination of the responses of disparity energy units. The emergence of motion-in-depth tuning i...

اثر تمرینات بینایی و بینایی- حرکتی منتخب بر مؤلفه‌های ادراک بینایی وابسته به حرکت در کودکان دارای تنبلی چشم

Background and Objective: The measure of motion playing a role in the growth of visual perception components and particularly visual perception depending on the motion components has not been known. The aim of this present study was to investigate the effect of visual and visual-motor training programs related to the motion of the components of visual perception in children with lazy eye.   M...

Encoding of binocular disparity by complex cells in the cat's visual cortex.

To examine the roles that complex cells play in stereopsis, we have recorded extracellularly from isolated single neurons in the striate cortex of anesthetized paralyzed cats. We measured binocular responses of complex cells using a comprehensive stimulus set that encompasses all possible combinations of positions over the receptive fields for the two eyes. For a given position combination, sti...

Audio–visual interactions for motion perception in depth modulate activity in visual area V3A

Multisensory signals can enhance the spatial perception of objects and events in the environment. Changes of visual size and auditory intensity provide us with the main cues about motion direction in depth. However, frequency changes in audition and binocular disparity in vision also contribute to the perception of motion in depth. Here, we presented subjects with several combinations of audito...

Strabismus disrupts binocular synaptic integration in primary visual cortex.

Visual disruption early in development dramatically changes how primary visual cortex neurons integrate binocular inputs. The disruption is paradigmatic for investigating the synaptic basis of long-term changes in cortical function, because the primary visual cortex is the site of binocular convergence. The underlying alterations in circuitry by visual disruption remain poorly understood. Here ...
