Abstract

To examine the role of primary visual cortex in visuospatial integration, we studied the spatial arrangement of contextual interactions in the response properties of neurons in primary visual cortex of alert monkeys and in human perception. We found a spatial segregation of opposing contextual interactions. At the level of cortical neurons, excitatory interactions were located along the ends of receptive fields, while inhibitory interactions were strongest along the orthogonal axis. Parallel psychophysical studies in human observers showed opposing contextual interactions surrounding a target line with a similar spatial distribution. The results suggest that V1 neurons can participate in multiple perceptual processes via spatially segregated and functionally distinct components of their receptive fields.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
