We can claim that we know what the visual system does once we can predict neural
responses to arbitrary stimuli, including those seen in nature. In the early visual system …

This essay reviews major developments–empirical and theoretical–in the field of binocular
vision during the last 25years. We limit our survey primarily to work on human stereopsis …

The response of a neuron in striate cortex to an optimally configured visual stimulus is
generally reduced when the stimulus is enlarged to encroach on a suppressive region that …

A fundamental problem for any visual system with binocular overlap is the combination of
information from the two eyes. Electrophysiology shows that binocular integration of …

When the corresponding retinal locations in the two eyes are presented with incompatible
images, a stable percept gives way to perceptual alternations in which the two images …

Visual mechanisms in primary visual cortex are suppressed by the superposition of gratings
perpendicular to their preferred orientations. A clear picture of this process is needed to (i) …

How do signals from the 2 eyes combine and interact? Our recent work has challenged
earlier schemes in which monocular contrast signals are subject to square-law transduction …

The response of a neuron in striate cortex to an optimally oriented stimulus is suppressed by
a superimposed orthogonal stimulus. The neural mechanism underlying this cross …

To decouple interocular suppression and binocular summation we varied the relative phase
of mask and target in a 2IFC contrast-masking paradigm. In Experiment I, dichoptic mask …

A well-known property of orientation-tuned neurons in the visual cortex is that they are
suppressed by the superposition of an orthogonal mask. This phenomenon has been …
