fields at nearby locations in the image. Mammalian species generally have multiple visual …

[HTML][HTML] Imaging retinotopic maps in the human brain

BA Wandell, J Winawer - Vision research, 2011 - Elsevier
A quarter-century ago visual neuroscientists had little information about the number and
organization of retinotopic maps in human visual cortex. The advent of functional magnetic …

Identifying natural images from human brain activity

KN Kay, T Naselaris, RJ Prenger, JL Gallant - Nature, 2008 - nature.com

Inverse retinotopy: inferring the visual content of images from brain activation patterns

B Thirion, E Duchesnay, E Hubbard, J Dubois… - Neuroimage, 2006 - Elsevier
Traditional inference in neuroimaging consists in describing brain activations elicited and
modulated by different kinds of stimuli. Recently, however, paradigms have been studied in …

[HTML][HTML] Spatial frequency tuning in human retinotopic visual areas

L Henriksson, L Nurminen, A Hyvärinen… - Journal of …, 2008 - jov.arvojournals.org

Recurrent processing in V1/V2 contributes to categorization of natural scenes

M Koivisto, H Railo, A Revonsuo, S Vanni… - Journal of …, 2011 - Soc Neuroscience
Humans are able to categorize complex natural scenes very rapidly and effortlessly, which
has led to an assumption that such ultra-rapid categorization is driven by feedforward …
