The macaque middle temporal area (MT) is exquisitely sensitive to visual motion and there
is a large amount of evidence that neural activity in MT is tightly correlated with the …

We have recently proposed a model of visual processing in which object recognition through
the ventral stream into inferotemporal cortex is facilitated by an initial rapid feedforward …

The analysis of object motion and stereoscopic depth are important tasks that are begun at
early stages of the primate visual system. Using sparse white noise, we mapped the …

Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is used in clinical and fundamental studies of brain
functions, primarily for the excellent temporal resolution it provides. The spatial resolution is …

Neurons in area MT/V5 of the macaque visual cortex encode visual motion. Some cells are
selective for the motion of oriented features (component direction-selective, CDS); others …

Studying the mismatch between perception and reality helps us better understand the
constructive nature of the visual brain. The Pinna–Brelstaff motion illusion is a compelling …

Sensory systems adjust continuously to the environment. The effects of recent sensory
experience—or adaptation—are typically assayed by recording in a relevant subcortical or …

Our perception of the positions of objects in our surroundings is surprisingly unaffected by
movements of the eyes, head, and body. This suggests that the brain has a mechanism for …

Neural substrates for processing constant speed visual motion have been extensively
studied. Less is known about the brain activity patterns when the target speed changes …

Motion in depth results in radial optic-flow patterns. Forward motion results in radially
expanding patterns, whereas backward motion generates contracting patterns. Radial optic …
