The profusion of progress during the past twenty years in identifying neural correlates of
selective attention within the visual system has left open the question of how visual …

Significant progress has been made in understanding vision by combining computational
and neuroscientific constraints. However, for the most part these integrative approaches …

Decision Processes in Visual Perception explores the relationships between the
organization of a complex visual pattern by the perception system and the molecular activity …

Soldiers who suffered head wounds in the Russo-Japanese War were among those who
contributed to the identification of the brain's visual center and the first description of its …

Many factors influence our perception of local features. What we see is not strictly a
reflection of the physical characteristics of a scene, but instead is highly dependent on the …

Somewhere between the retina and our conscious visual experience, the majority of the
information impinging on the eye is lost. We are typically aware of only either the most …

A fundamental understanding of the mechanisms of cortical processing requires an
examination of the relationships of cortical circuitry, functional architecture, and receptive …

This paper traces the history of the visual receptive field (RF) from Hartline to Hubel and
Wiesel. Hartline (1938, 1940) found that an isolated optic nerve fiber in the frog could be …

This is the story of a hugely successful and enjoyable 25-year collaboration between two
scientists who set out to learn how the brain deals with the signals it receives from the two …
