Journal ArticleDOI
The two-dimensional spatial structure of simple receptive fields in cat striate cortex
J. P. Jones,L. A. Palmer +1 more
TL;DR: A reverse correlation method is developed that allows quantitative determination of visual receptive-field structure in two spatial dimensions and it is demonstrated that thereverse correlation method yields results with several desirable properties, including convergence and reproducibility independent of modest changes in stimulus parameters.

Receptive field organization of complex cells in the cat's striate cortex.
TL;DR: The subunits of a complex receptive field may, by their spatial properties, determine the spatial selectivities of complex cells, while the nature of the interaction among the subunits may determine these cells' sensitivity and selectivity for moving visual stimuli.
Journal ArticleDOI
Classifying simple and complex cells on the basis of response modulation.
Bernt C. Skottun,Russell L. De Valois,David H. Grosof,J. Anthony Movshon,Duane G. Albrecht,A. B. Bonds +5 more
TL;DR: Evidence is reviewed which indicates that this simple, objective classification criterion based on the form of the response to drifting sinusoidal gratings divides neurons of the striate cortex in both cats and monkeys into two groups that correspond closely to the classically-described simple and complex classes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Form, function and intracortical projections of spiny neurones in the striate visual cortex of the cat.
K A Martin,D Whitteridge +1 more
TL;DR: The neuronal circuitry and structure‐function relationships of single neurones in the striate visual cortex of the cat using a combination of electrophysiological and anatomical techniques were studied and two striking correlations were found between dendritic morphology and receptive field type.

Receptive fields, binocular interaction and functional architecture in the cat's visual cortex
David H. Hubel,Torsten N. Wiesel +1 more
TL;DR: This method is used to examine receptive fields of a more complex type and to make additional observations on binocular interaction and this approach is necessary in order to understand the behaviour of individual cells, but it fails to deal with the problem of the relationship of one cell to its neighbours.
Journal ArticleDOI
Receptive fields and functional architecture in two nonstriate visual areas (18 and 19) of the cat.
David H. Hubel,Torsten N. Wiesel +1 more
TL;DR: To UNDERSTAND VISION in physiological terms represents a formidable problem for the biologist, and one approach is to stimulate the retina with patterns of light while recording from single cells or fibers at various points along the visual pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI
The contrast sensitivity of retinal ganglion cells of the cat.
TL;DR: Spatial summation within cat retinal receptive fields was studied by recording from optic‐tract fibres the responses of ganglion cells to grating patterns whose luminance perpendicular to the bars varied sinusoidally about the mean level.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was found that an occipital evoked potential can be elicited in the human by moving a grating pattern without changing the mean light flux entering the eye.
