While it is generally recognized that perceived
brightness is not
apoint-by-point representation of retinal illumination, there is no
consensus about how
brightness is computed. The
goal of the proposed research is to answ

Huang, Xin; Paradiso, Michael A. | | From Abstract: | | In natural behavioral situations, saccadic eye movements not only introduce new stimuli into V1 receptive fields, they also cause changes in the background. We recorded in awake macaque V1 using a fixation paradigm and compared evoked activity to small stimuli when the background was either static |
