Journal ArticleDOI
Oscillatory responses in cat visual cortex exhibit inter-columnar synchronization which reflects global stimulus properties.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated here that neurons in spatially separate columns can synchronize their oscillatory responses, which has, on average, no phase difference, depends on the spatial separation and the orientation preference of the cells and is influenced by global stimulus properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visuomotor integration is associated with zero time-lag synchronization among cortical areas
TL;DR: When cats responded to a sudden change of a visual pattern, neuronal activity in cortical areas exhibited synchrony without time lags; this synchrony was particularly strong between areas subserving related functions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interhemispheric synchronization of oscillatory neuronal responses in cat visual cortex.
TL;DR: Response synchronization has now been shown to occur also between neurons in area 17 of the right and left cerebral hemispheres, and this synchronization is mediated by corticocortical connections, compatible with the hypothesis that temporal synchrony of neuronal discharges serves to bind features within and between the visual hemifields.
Journal ArticleDOI
Top-down processing mediated by interareal synchronization
TL;DR: Corticocortical synchronization reflects the internal state of the animal and may mediate top-down processes in perception of stimuli with varying behavioral significance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temporal coding in the visual cortex: new vistas on integration in the nervous system
TL;DR: These results support the hypothesis that temporal correlation of neuronal discharges may serve to bind distributed neuronal activity into unique representations and indicate that neuronal responses with an oscillatory temporal structure may be particularly advantageous as carrier signals for such a temporal coding mechanism.
