TLDR
By comparing physiological and psychophysical measures of visual latency, suprathreshold stimuli are used to explore the relationship between perception and its underlying physiology to explain the effects of flash strength, flash duration and background illumination upon perceptual latency.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Synchrony unbound: a critical evaluation of the temporal binding hypothesis.
Michael N. Shadlen,J. A. Movshon +1 more
TL;DR: It is asked whether spike be partially occluded by other objects, so the problem of binding the separate representations of parts into synchrony can plausibly be used as an informational code, and whether there are significant practical coherent wholes is not a simple one.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Temporal Correlation Hypothesis of Visual Feature Integration: Still Alive and Well
TL;DR: The temporal correlation hypothesis as mentioned in this paper is based on the notion that perceptual grouping is a rapid, preattentive process that acts in parallel over the visual field to "bind" features with common properties into larger units.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visual response latencies in striate cortex of the macaque monkey
TL;DR: It appears that the first 7-10 ms of cortical activation can be attributed to activation relayed by the magnocellular layers of the LGN, and an index of response transience was computed for the units recorded in striate cortex.
Journal ArticleDOI
The What and Why of Binding: The Modeler’s Perspective
TL;DR: The idea of neural signal synchrony was first formulated as a general phenomenon in the 1970s as mentioned in this paper, but it was largely ignored for many years, and only recently has it become a topic of animated discussion.

Glass-coated platinum-plated tungsten microelectrodes.
E. G. Merrill,A. Ainsworth +1 more
TL;DR: A novel technique is described for the removal of insulation from electrode tips by embedding them in a softened bead of solder glass, producing clean fractures of the borosilicate glass at the surface of the bead; the bare, undamaged tip of the electrode is then withdrawn.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maintained activity in the cat's retina in light and darkness.
TL;DR: The firing probability at any time depends on the times of occurrence of the two preceding impulses only, and in such a way as to indicate that each impulse is followed by a transient depression of excitability that outlasts the following impulse.

Three factors limiting the reliable detection of light by retinal ganglion cells of the cat
Horace Barlow,W. R. Levick +1 more
TL;DR: Responses of cat retinal ganglion cells have been examined with a view to specifying the characteristics that limit the detection of light stimuli.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptation and dynamics of cat retinal ganglion cells.
TL;DR: The impulse/quantum (I/Q) ratio was measured as a function of background illumination for rod‐dominated, pure central, linear square‐wave responses of retinal ganglion cells in the cat.
