چکیده

We compared three-dimensional structure-from-motion (3D-SFM) processing in awake monkeys and humans using functional magnetic resonance imaging. Occipital and midlevel extrastriate visual areas showed similar activation by 3D-SFM stimuli in both species. In contrast, intraparietal areas showed significant 3D-SFM activation in humans but not in monkeys. This suggests that human intraparietal cortex contains visuospatial processing areas that are not present in monkeys.

Anterior Regions of Monkey Parietal Cortex Process Visual 3D Shape

The intraparietal cortex is involved in the control of visually guided actions, like reach-to-grasp movements, which require extracting the 3D shape and position of objects from 2D retinal images. Using fMRI in behaving monkeys, we investigated the role of the intraparietal cortex in processing stereoscopic information for recovering the depth structure and the position in depth of objects. We ...

Mapping the parietal cortex of human and non-human primates.

The present essay reviews a series of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies conducted in parallel in humans and awake monkeys, concentrating on the intraparietal sulcus (IPS). MR responses to a range of visual stimuli indicate that the human IPS contains more functional regions along its anterior-posterior extent than are known in the monkey. Human IPS includes four motion sensit...

Representation of eye movements and stimulus motion in topographically organized areas of human posterior parietal cortex.

Recent imaging studies have shown that the human posterior parietal cortex (PPC) contains four topographically organized areas along the intraparietal sulcus (IPS1-IPS4). Using a memory-guided saccade paradigm, we confirmed the locations and retinotopic organization of IPS1-IPS4 and identified two additional areas, IPS5 and superior parietal lobule 1 (SPL1). IPS5 is located at the intersection ...

Human Cortical Regions Involved in Extracting Depth from Motion

We used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate brain regions involved in extracting three-dimensional structure from motion. A factorial design included two-dimensional and three-dimensional structures undergoing rigid and nonrigid motions. As predicted from monkey data, the human homolog of MT/V5 was significantly more active when subjects viewed three-dimensional (as oppo...

Natural vision reveals regional specialization to local motion and to contrast-invariant, global flow in the human brain.

Visual changes in feature movies, like in real-live, can be partitioned into global flow due to self/camera motion, local/differential flow due to object motion, and residuals, for example, due to illumination changes. We correlated these measures with brain responses of human volunteers viewing movies in an fMRI scanner. Early visual areas responded only to residual changes, thus lacking respo...
