Artificial neurons meet real neurons: pattern selectivity in V4
Vision in humans and in non-human primates is mediated by a constellation of hierarchically organized visual areas. One important area is V4 which has highly nonlinear response properties. To better understand the filtering properties of V4 neurons we recorded from 71 well isolated cells stimulated with 4000-12000 static grayscale natural images. We fit predictive models of neuron spike rates u...
متن کاملSpectral receptive field properties explain shape selectivity in area V4.
Neurons in cortical area V4 respond selectively to complex visual patterns such as curved contours and non-Cartesian gratings. Most previous experiments in V4 have measured responses to small, idiosyncratic stimulus sets and no single functional model yet accounts for all of the disparate results. We propose that one model, the spectral receptive field (SRF), can explain many observations of se...
متن کاملA model of V4 shape selectivity and invariance.
Object recognition in primates is mediated by the ventral visual pathway and is classically described as a feedforward hierarchy of increasingly sophisticated representations. Neurons in macaque monkey area V4, an intermediate stage along the ventral pathway, have been shown to exhibit selectivity to complex boundary conformation and invariance to spatial translation. How could such a represent...
متن کاملPresaccadic discrimination of receptive field stimuli by area V4 neurons
Previous studies have shown that the visual responses of neurons in extrastriate area V4 are enhanced prior to saccadic eye movements that target receptive field (RF) stimuli. We used receiver-operator characteristic (ROC) analysis to quantify how well V4 neurons could discriminate stable RF stimuli targeted by visually-guided saccades or ignored during saccades elsewhere. We found that discrim...
متن کاملConvexity-Based Camouflage Breaking
This paper presents biological evidence for camouflage breaking using the convexity of the intensity function. Some animals use apatetic coloring especially to prevent their detection by graylevel convexity. This implies that other animals might be able to break camouflage based on graylevel convexity. We demonstrate the effectiveness of convexity based camouflage breaking using an operator (“D...
