Motion opponency in visual cortex.
Perceptual studies suggest that visual motion perception is mediated by opponent mechanisms that correspond to mutually suppressive populations of neurons sensitive to motions in opposite directions. We tested for a neuronal correlate of motion opponency using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to measure brain activity in human visual cortex. There was strong motion opponency in a se...
متن کاملVisual Cortex: Seeing Motion
What happens in primary visual cortex (V1) when we look at a complex moving image? While motion responses have been investigated thoroughly at the level of single neurons [1–4], studies of motion representation at the level of maps have been restricted to stimuli composed of long bars. These stimuli are inherently ambiguous as to their direction of motion [1]. A recent study by Fitzpatrick and ...
متن کاملL-/M-cone opponency in visual evoked potentials of human cortex.
L and M cones send their signals to the cortex using two chromatic (parvocellular and blue-yellow koniocellular) and one luminance (magnocellular) pathways. These pathways contain ON and OFF subpathways that respond to excitation increments and decrements respectively. Here, we report on visually evoked potentials (VEP) recordings that reflect L- and M-cone driven increment (LI and MI) and decr...

متن کاملMotion direction tuning in human visual cortex.
A number of electrophysiological studies have been conducted in recent years in order to clarify the dynamics of visual motion processing in the human brain. Using a variety of event-related potential (ERP) measures, several parameters such as onset, offset, contrast and velocity have been investigated, while a critical aspect of visual motion, that of direction, has received less attention. He...
