When a moving object cuts in front of a moving observer at a 90° angle, the observer
correctly perceives that the object is traveling along a perpendicular path just as if viewing …

Self-motion generates patterns of optic flow on the retina. Neurons in the dorsal part of the
medial superior temporal area (MSTd) are selective for these optic flow patterns. It has been …

Human heading perception is robust in the presence of moving objects, except when the
object crosses the focus of expansion (FoE). If the object approaches the observer, heading …

As arboreal primates move through the jungle, they are immersed in visual motion that they
must distinguish from the movement of predators and prey. We recorded dorsal medial …

We presented optic flow and real movement heading stimuli while recording MSTd neuronal
activity. Monkeys were alternately engaged in three tasks: visual detection of optic flow …

We have proposed previously a computational neural-network model by which the complex
patterns of retinal image motion generated during locomotion (optic flow) can be processed …

Recent findings of vestibular responses in part of the visual cortex—the dorsal medial
superior temporal area (MSTd)—indicate that vestibular signals might contribute to cortical …

Dorsal medial superior temporal cortex (MSTd)'s population response encodes heading
direction from optic flow seen during fixation or pursuit. Vestibular responses in these …
