The potential importance of saturating and supersaturating contrast response functions in visual cortexJonathan W Peirce
Nottingham Visual Neuroscience, School of Psychology, University of Nottingham, Nottingham, UK
J Vis 7:13. 2007..In this role, the existence of saturating contrast response functions might be considered necessary rather than simply optimal...
Cortical representation of color is binocularJonathan W Peirce
Nottingham Visual Neuroscience, School of Psychology, University of Nottingham, Nottingham, UK
J Vis 8:6.1-10. 2008....
Selective mechanisms for complex visual patterns revealed by adaptationJ W Peirce
Visual Neuroscience Group, School of Psychology, University of Nottingham, University Park, Nottingham NG7 2RD, UK
Neuroscience 141:15-8. 2006..Here we show the existence of visual mechanisms in humans, tuned and selective to particular combinations of simple sinusoidal patterns, using a novel method of compound adaptation...
PsychoPy--Psychophysics software in PythonJonathan W Peirce
Nottingham Visual Neuroscience, School of Psychology, University of Nottingham, Nottingham NG7 2RD, United Kingdom
J Neurosci Methods 162:8-13. 2007..If a user wants to add support for a particular stimulus, analysis or hardware device they can look at the code for existing examples, modify them and submit the modifications back into the package so that the whole community benefits...
The timing of binding and segregation of two compound aftereffectsDavid P McGovern
Nottingham Visual Neuroscience, School of Psychology, University of Nottingham, Nottingham, UK
Vision Res 51:1047-57. 2011....
Ameliorating the combinatorial explosion with spatial frequency-matched combinations of V1 outputsSarah Hancock
Nottingham Visual Neuroscience, School of Psychology, University of Nottingham, Nottingham, UK
J Vis 10:7. 2010..This has important implications for mid-level visual processing, both for the combinatorial explosion and for the selective "binding" of common features that are perceived as coming from a single visual object...
Transfer of perceptual learning between different visual tasksDavid P McGovern
Nottingham Visual Neuroscience, School of Psychology, The University of Nottingham, Nottingham, UK
J Vis 12:4. 2012..Our results suggest that sensory improvements derived from perceptual learning can transfer between very different visual tasks...
A comparison of fMRI adaptation and multivariate pattern classification analysis in visual cortexPanagiotis Sapountzis
Nottingham Visual Neuroscience, School of Psychology, University of Nottingham, Nottingham, UK
Neuroimage 49:1632-40. 2010..Estimates of orientation selectivity obtained with the two methods were, however, very highly correlated across visual areas...
The spatial characteristics of plaid-form-selective mechanismsDavid P McGovern
Nottingham Visual Neuroscience, School of Psychology, University of Nottingham, Nottingham NG7 2RD, UK
Vision Res 50:796-804. 2010..These findings suggest that the visual system is equipped with mechanisms that conduct a global analysis of the plaid pattern, which are likely derived from the non-linear outputs of V1 complex cells...
Selective mechanisms for simple contours revealed by compound adaptationSarah Hancock
Nottingham Visual Neuroscience, School of Psychology, University of Nottingham, UK
J Vis 8:11.1-10. 2008..This effect was considerably reduced by increasing the spatial separation of the component gratings. The results are consistent with curvature detectors involved in the perceptual grouping of edges...
Two expressions of "surround suppression" in V1 that arise independent of cortical mechanisms of suppressionChris Tailby
Center for Neural Science, New York University, New York, New York, USA
Vis Neurosci 24:99-109. 2007....
Profound contrast adaptation early in the visual pathwaySamuel G Solomon
Center for Neural Science, New York University, New York, NY 10003, USA
Neuron 42:155-62. 2004..Our observations confirm that contrast adaptation occurs at multiple levels in the visual system, and they provide a new way to reveal the function and perceptual significance of the M pathway...
The impact of suppressive surrounds on chromatic properties of cortical neuronsSamuel G Solomon
Center for Neural Science, New York University, New York, New York 10003, USA
J Neurosci 24:148-60. 2004..Cortical mechanisms sensitive to chromatic contrast seem to provide little input to the suppressive surrounds of V1 neurons but substantial input to those of V2 neurons...
Functional asymmetry in sheep temporal cortexJonathan W Peirce
Laboratory of Cognitive and Developmental Neuroscience, Babraham Institute, Babraham, Cambridge CB2 4AT, UK
Neuroreport 13:2395-9. 2002....
Residual eye-movements in macaque and their effects on visual responses of neuronsJason Forte
Center for Neural Science, New York University, New York 10003, USA
Vis Neurosci 19:31-8. 2002..We show how the effects of eye-movements can be mitigated by appropriate data analysis...
Binocular integration of partially occluded surfacesJason Forte
Center for Neural Science, New York University, Room 809, 4 Washington Place, New York, NY 10003, USA
Vision Res 42:1225-35. 2002..The discovery of coherent surfaces under our conditions seems to reflect the operation of a high-level integration process, failures of which drive rivalry...
