The variability of discharge of simple cells in the cat striate cortex

AF Dean - Experimental Brain Research, 1981 - Springer
The relationship between the variance and mean rate of discharges of simple cells in the cat
striate cortex has been examined when mean rate was varied by changing either stimulus …

Spatial summation of responses in receptive fields of single cells in cat striate cortex

GH Henry, AW Goodwin, PO Bishop - Experimental Brain Research, 1978 - Springer
Spatial summation of responses in striate neurons in cats under N 2 O/O 2 anaesthesia was
examined quantitatively both along the line of the optimal stimulus orientation (length …

The velocity tuning of single units in cat striate cortex.

JA Movshon - The Journal of Physiology, 1975 - Wiley Online Library
1. The activity of single units was recorded from the striate cortex (area 17) of anaesthetized,
paralysed cats. Responses to stimuli moving at different velocities were examined. 2. Peak …

The relationship between response amplitude and contrast for cat striate cortical neurones.

AF Dean - The Journal of Physiology, 1981 - Wiley Online Library
1. The activity of forty‐three neurones in the cat's striate cortex in response to laterally
moving sinusoidal gratings of various contrasts was recorded, in order to examine the …

Quantitative studies of single-cell properties in monkey striate cortex. III. Spatial frequency

PH Schiller, BL Finlay… - Journal of …, 1976 - journals.physiology.org
1. The response properties of single cells in monkey striate cortex were examined using
moving bars, square-wave gratings, and sine-wave gratings. 2. The moving of cells studied …

Spatiotemporal organization of simple-cell receptive fields in the cat's striate cortex. II. Linearity of temporal and spatial summation

GC DeAngelis, I Ohzawa… - Journal of …, 1993 - journals.physiology.org
1. We have tested the hypothesis that simple cells in the cat's visual cortex perform a linear
spatiotemporal filtering of the visual image. To conduct this study we note that a visual …

Response variability and orientation discrimination of single cells in striate cortex of cat

P Heggelund, K Albus - Experimental Brain Research, 1978 - Springer
The response of single cells in the striate cortex of cat to a moving light bar of variable
orientation was measured by a method providing data on the mean response as well as the …

Receptive-field structure in cat striate cortex.

LA Palmer, TL Davis - Journal of neurophysiology, 1981 - journals.physiology.org
4. There was also considerable variation in the temporal aspects of the responses. In spite of
this, simple and complex cells could usually be distinguished on the basis of the time course …

Interaction effects of visual contours on the discharge frequency of simple striate neurones

PO Bishop, JS Coombs, GH Henry - The Journal of physiology, 1971 - Wiley Online Library
1. The discharge frequency of simple neurones in the cat striate cortex responding to the two
edges of a slit of light moving over their receptive fields was studied as a function of slit …

Periodic excitability changes across the receptive fields of complex cells in the striate and parastriate cortex of the cat.

DA Pollen, SF Ronner - The Journal of Physiology, 1975 - Wiley Online Library
1. Complex cells in cortical areas 17 and 18 of the cat have been studied in response to
narrow slits and edges moving across the receptive field in the preferred direction and also …
