Document Summary
Ring rate of that neuron when only excitatory area stimulated, high response output of a centre-surround. The location of the neuron can be anywhere, though. Found through measurements of responses in simple cortical cell depending on orientation of bars. occipital lobe superior colliculus it is the visual receiving area: place where signals from the retina and lgn rst reach the cortex. Bres that leave the eye they mapped centre-surround receptive elds in the optic nerves of the cat and recorded from the lgn (which also contained centre-surround receptive elds) method studied properties of neurons in. Elds (that is, side-by-side area v1/visual cortex inhibitory and excitatory observed elongated receptive regions) small change happens moving from receptive elds to lgn. No response to stimuli that is too long (exceeds length they prefer) respond to corners or angles processing from retina to visual cortex and beyond the optic nerve is made of many individual nerve bres.
