Efficiency of Information Coding in Various L/M Retinal Cone Ratios
Authors
Abstract:
Previous evidence has shown that the number of L and M cones in retina varies significantly between subjects. However, it is not clear how the variation of L/M ratio changes the behavioral performance of the subject. A model of transformation of data from retina to visual cortex for evaluation of various L/M cones ratios is presented. While L/M cone ratios close to 1 brings the best performance for one of postreceptoral (magnocellular) channels, we showed that the performance in the second channel (parvocells) will improve when the ratio furthers away from 1. Effects of different ratios of S were also explored.

At the retinal level, the strategies utilized by biological visual systems allow them to outperform machine vision systems, serving to motivate the design of electronic or \smart" sensors based on similar principles. Design of such sensors in silicon rst requires a model of retinal information processing which captures the essential features exhibited by biological retinas. In this report, a si...
full textDifferential Encoding of Spatial Information among Retinal ON Cone Bipolar
29 The retina is the first stage of visual processing. It encodes elemental features of visual 30 scenes. Distinct cone bipolar cells provide the substrate for this to occur. They encode visual 31 information, such as color and luminance, a principle known as parallel processing. Few studies 32 have directly examined whether different forms of spatial information are processed in parallel 33 am...
full textNeural Coding Analysis in Retinal Ganglion Cells Using Information Theory
Information Theory is used for analyzing the neural code of retinal ganglion cells. This approximation may quantify the amount of information transmitted by the whole population, versus single cells. The redundancy inherent in the code may be determined by obtaining the information bits of increasing cells datasets and by analyzing the relation between the joint information compared with the ad...
full textConcerted activity and information coding in the retinal ganglion cells.
In vertebrate visual system, information is firstly processed in retina. With the development of the multi-electrode recording technique, concerted activity has been extensively observed in retinal ganglion cells of different species. However, the role of concerted activity in visual information processing is still unclear and under debating. This article reviews the recent studies focused on c...
