Journal ArticleDOI

Acetylcholine contributes through muscarinic receptors to attentional modulation in V1

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that muscarinic cholinergic mechanisms play a central part in mediating the effects of attention in V1 by showing that this attentional modulation was enhanced by low doses of acetylcholine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Attention Reduces Stimulus-Driven Gamma Frequency Oscillations and Spike Field Coherence in V1

TL;DR: Whether rhythmic activity in V1 of the macaque monkey (macaca mulatta) is affected by top-down visual attention is investigated and gamma oscillations were strongly modulated by the stimulus and by attention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Attention alters spatial integration in macaque V1 in an eccentricity-dependent manner

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors showed that attention can selectively enhance neuronal responses and exclude external noise, but the neuronal computations that underlie these effects remain unknown, and that noise exclusion might result in altered spatial integration properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Visual mechanisms of motion analysis and motion perception

TL;DR: Current psychophysical and physiological data indicate that local motion sensors are selective for orientation and spatial frequency but they do not eliminate any of the three main models-the Reichardt detector, the motion-energy filter, and gradient-based sensors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Additive Effects of Attention and Stimulus Contrast in Primary Visual Cortex

TL;DR: The data suggest that feedback from higher areas exerts a constant attentional drive that is mostly task not stimulus driven, and support recent functional magnetic resonance imaging studies and suggest that attention adds to the neuronal responses in a largely contrast invariant manner.
