Representation of regular and irregular shapes in macaque inferotemporal cortex.
We determined the degree to which the response modulation of macaque inferior temporal (IT) neurons corresponds to perceptual versus physical shape similarities. IT neurons were tested with four groups of shapes. One group consisted of variations of simple, symmetrical (i.e. regular) shapes that differed in nonaccidental properties (NAPs, i.e. viewpoint-invariant), such as curved versus straigh...
متن کاملShort-latency category specific neural responses to human faces in macaque inferotemporal cortex
In this article I would present evidence to show that timing of the flow of neural signals within the ventral visual stream is a crucial part of the neural code for categorization of faces. We recorded the activity of 554 inferotemporal neurons from two macaque monkeys performing a fixation task. More than 1000 object images including human and non-primate animal faces were presented up to 10 t...

متن کاملRepresentation of the spatial relationship among object parts by neurons in macaque inferotemporal cortex.
We investigated object representation in area TE, the anterior part of monkey inferotemporal (IT) cortex, with a combination of optical and extracellular recordings in anesthetized monkeys. We found neurons that respond to visual stimuli composed of naturally distinguishable parts. These neurons were sensitive to a particular spatial arrangement of parts but less sensitive to differences in loc...
متن کاملVisual properties of neurons in inferotemporal cortex of the Macaque.
IN THE LAST DEC,ADE, considerable progress has been made in understanding the physiology of one of the most fundamental aspects of human experience: perception of the visual world. It is now clear that the retina and visual pathways do not simply transmit a mosaic of Iight and dark to some central sensorium. Rather, even at the retinal level, specific features of visual stimuli are detected and...
