A Motion Direction Map in Macaque V2
In mammals, the perception of motion starts with direction-selective neurons in the visual cortex. Despite numerous studies in monkey primary and second visual cortex (V1 and V2), there has been no evidence of direction maps in these areas. In the present study, we used optical imaging methods to study the organization of motion response in macaque V1 and V2. In contrast to the findings in othe...
متن کاملAn Orientation Map for Motion Boundaries in Macaque V2.
The ability to extract the shape of moving objects is fundamental to visual perception. However, where such computations are processed in the visual system is unknown. To address this question, we used intrinsic signal optical imaging in awake monkeys to examine cortical response to perceptual contours defined by motion contrast (motion boundaries, MBs). We found that MB stimuli elicit a robust...

متن کاملA Motion Direction Preference Map in Monkey V4
In the primate visual system, area V4 is located in the ventral pathway and is traditionally thought to be involved in processing color and form information. However, little is known about its functional role in processing motion information. Using intrinsic signal optical imaging over large fields of view in V1, V2, and V4, we mapped the direction of motion responses in anesthetized macaques. ...
متن کاملOrientation domain diversity in macaque area V2
Single orientation domains in primary (V1) and second (V2) visual cortical areas are known to encode the orientation of visual contours. However, the visual world contains multiple and complex contour types. How do these domains handle such complexity? Using optical imaging methods, we have examined orientation response to two types of contours: real (luminance-defined) and illusory (inferred)....
