Optical Velocity Patterns, Velocity-Sensitive Neurons, and Space Perception: A Hypothesis
A hypothesis is put forward of how global patterns of optical flow, as discussed by Gibson, Johansson, and others, could be processed by relatively simple physiological mechanis...
Coherent spatiotemporal patterns of ongoing activity revealed by real-time optical imaging coupled with single-unit recording in the cat visual cortex
1. We examined the spatiotemporal organization of ongoing activity in cat visual areas 17 and 18, in relation to the spontaneous activity of individual neurons. To search for co...
Medial Prefrontal Cortices Are Unified by Common Connections With Superior Temporal Cortices and Distinguished by Input From Memory-Related Areas in the Rhesus Monkey
Medial prefrontal cortices in primates have been associated with emotion, memory, and complex cognitive processes. Here we investigated whether the pattern of cortical connectio...
Determining the orientation of surfaces from optical flow
This paper presents a method for computing the orientation of physical surfaces relative to the moving observer. The method is theoretically derived; it is not 'ad hoc'. The met...
Transformation of sensory organ identity by ectopic expression of Cut in Drosophila.
The loss of cut activity results in a change in neural identity in the peripheral nervous system so that the neurons and support cells of external sensory (es) organs are transf...
