The ventral pathway in visual cortex is responsible for the perception of shape. Area V4 is an
important intermediate stage in this pathway, and provides the major input to the final stages …

Intrinsic signal imaging from inferotemporal (IT) cortex, a visual area essential for object
perception and recognition, revealed that visually presented objects activated patches in a …

Nous possédons des informations détaillées sur la psychophysique et la physiologie du
systéme visuel chez le mammifere, mais relativement peu sur comment les processus …

1. Lesions of the inferior temporal (IT) cortex selectively hamper monkeys in tasks requiring
visual memory. A system that recognizes images must be able to encode a current stimulus …

Several neurophysiological studies have shown that the visual cerebral cortex of macaque
monkeys performing delayed match-to-sample tasks contains individual neurons whose …

Recent physiological findings are reviewed and synthesized into a model of shape
processing and object recognition. Gestalt laws (eg good continuation, closure) and 'non …

1. To analyze the selectivity and the sparseness of firing to visual stimuli of single neurons in
the primate temporal cortical visual area, neuronal responses were measured to a set of 68 …

1. Inferior temporal cortex (IT) is a" high-order" region of primate temporal visual cortex
implicated in visual pattern perception and recognition. To gain some insight into the …

Binocular disparity, the slight differences between the images registered by our two eyes,
provides an important cue when estimating the three-dimensional (3D) structure of the …

When a suprathreshold visual stimulus is flashed for 60–300 ms and masked, though it is no
longer visibly degraded, the perceived shape is vulnerable to distortion effects, especially …
