Quantitative analyses of orientation specificity and ocular dominance were carried out in striate cortex of the rhesus monkey. 2. Sharpness of orientation selectivity was greater for simple (S type) than for complex (CX type) cells. CX-type cells became more broadly tuned in the deeper cortical layers: S-type cells were equally well tuned throughout the cortex. 3. Sharpness of orientation selectivity for S-type cells was similar at all retinal eccentricities studied (0\u0026amp;quot;-20\u0026amp;quot; from the fovea): in CX-type cells orientation selectivity decreased slightly with increasing eccentricity. 4. The orientation tuning of binocular cells was similar when mapped separately through each eye. 5. Orientation selectivity and direction selectivity are independent of each other, suggesting that separate neural mechanisms give rise to them. 6. More CX-type cells can be binocularly activated than S-type cells (88% versus 49%). The ocular dominance of S-type cells is similar in all cortical layers: for CX-type cells there is an increase in the number of cells in oculardominance category 4 in layers 5 and 6.","author":[{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Person","name":"Louis Porter"}],"contributor":[],"dateCreated":"2021-07-23","dateModified":"2021-07-23","datePublished":null,"headline":"Quantitative Studies of Single-Cell Properties in Monkey Striate Cortex.

Several statistical analyses were performed on 205 S-type and CX-type cells which had been completely analyzed on 12 response variables: orientation tuning, end stopping, spontaneous activity, response variability, direction selectivity, contrast selectivity for flashed or moving stimuli, selectivity for interaction of contrast and direction of stimulus movement, spatial-frequency selectivity, spatial separation of subfields responding to light increment or light decrement, sustained/transient response to flash, receptive-field size, and ocular dominance. 2. Correlation of these variables showed that within any cell group, these response variables vary independently. 3. A multivariate discriminant analysis showed that orientation specificity, receptive-field size, interaction of direction and contrast specificity, ocular dominance, and spontaneous activity, taken together, can adequately assign cells into the S-type or CX-type subgroups. 4. Various models of visual cortex are examined in view of the findings reported here and in the previous papers of this series, which suggest that a) orientation and direction s&&vities are produced by separate neural mechanisms, 6) there may be a hierarchy among simple (S type) cells, and c) complex (CX type) cells appear to receive a prominent S-type cell input.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Quantitative Studies of Single-Cell Properties in Monkey Striate Cortex.

The receptive-field properties of corticotectal cells in the monkey's striate cortex were studied using stationary and moving stimuli. These cells were identified by antidromic activation from the superior colliculus. 2. Corticotectal cells form a relatively homogeneous group. They are found primarily in layers 5 and 6. These cells can usually be classified as CX-type cells but show broader orientation tuning, larger receptive fields, higher spontaneous activity, and greater binocular activation than CX-type cells do in general. A third of the corticotectal cells were direction selective. 3. These results suggest that the cortical input to the superior colliculus is not directly responsible for the receptive-field properties of collicular cells. We propose that this input has a gating function in contributing to the control of the downflow of excitation from the superficial to the deep layers of the colliculus.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Quantitative Studies of Single-Cell Properties in Monkey Striate Cortex.

Single-unit recordings revealed that the large majority of V1 neurons respond to the stimulation of either eye but are more strongly activated by one of them. As in other species of monkey, neurons with preference for the stimulation of the same eye are grouped in columns 300–400 µm wide, spanning all cortical layers. Monocular neurons are clustered in layer IVc, specially in its deeper half (IVc-beta), and constitute less than 10% of the population of other layers. Neurons with equal responses to each eye are more commonly found in layer V than elsewhere in V1. In the supragranular layers and in granular layer IVc-alpha neurons strongly dominated by one of the eyes tend to be broadly tuned for orientation, while binocularly balanced neurons tend to be sharply tuned for this parameter. No such correlation was detected in the infragranular layers, and most neurons in layer IVc-beta responded regardless of stimulus orientation. Ocular dominance stripes are present throughout most of V1 as long, parallel or bifurcating bands alternately dominated by the ipsi- or the contralateral eye. They are absent from the cortical representations of the blind spot and the monocular crescent. The domains of each eye occupy nearly equal portions of the surface of binocular V1, except for the representation of the periphery, where the contralateral eye has a larger domain, and a narrow strip along the border of V1 with V2, where either eye may predominate. The orderliness of the pattern of stripes and the relationship between stripe arrangement and the representation of the visual meridians vary with eccentricity and polar angle but follow the same rules in different animals. These results demonstrate that the laminar, columnar and topographic distribution of neurons with different degrees of OD in V1 is qualitatively similar in New- and Old World monkeys of similar sizes and suggest that common ancestry, rather than parallel evolution, may account for the OD phenotypes of contemporaneous simians.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Laminar, columnar and topographic aspects of ocular dominance in the primary visual cortex of Cebus monkeys","attachmentId":48805269,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/6564836/Laminar_columnar_and_topographic_aspects_of_ocular_dominance_in_the_primary_visual_cortex_of_Cebus_monkeys","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/6564836/Laminar_columnar_and_topographic_aspects_of_ocular_dominance_in_the_primary_visual_cortex_of_Cebus_monkeys"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="5" data-entity-id="2483282" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/2483282/Receptive_fields_and_functional_architecture_of_monkey_striate_cortex">Receptive fields and functional architecture of monkey striate cortex</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="3236631" href="https://independent.academia.edu/AdriawanAwang">Adriawan Awang</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">The Journal of physiology, 1968</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Receptive fields and functional architecture of monkey striate cortex","attachmentId":30501886,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/2483282/Receptive_fields_and_functional_architecture_of_monkey_striate_cortex","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/2483282/Receptive_fields_and_functional_architecture_of_monkey_striate_cortex"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="6" data-entity-id="69070713" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/69070713/Linear_and_nonlinear_contributions_to_orientation_tuning_of_simple_cells_in_the_cats_striate_cortex">Linear and nonlinear contributions to orientation tuning of simple cells in the cat's striate cortex</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="39028639" href="https://osaka-u.academia.edu/IzumiOhzawa">Izumi Ohzawa</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">Visual Neuroscience, 1999</p><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">Orientation selectivity is one of the most conspicuous receptive-field (RF) properties that distinguishes neurons in the striate cortex from those in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN). It has been suggested that orientation selectivity arises from an elongated array of feedforward LGN inputs (Hubel & Wiesel, 1962). Others have argued that cortical mechanisms underlie orientation selectivity (e.g. Sillito, 1975; Somers et al., 1995). However, isolation of each mechanism is experimentally difficult and no single study has analyzed both processes simultaneously to address their relative roles. An alternative approach, which we have employed in this study, is to examine the relative contributions of linear and nonlinear mechanisms in sharpening orientation tuning. Since the input stage of simple cells is remarkably linear, the nonlinear contribution can be attributed solely to cortical factors. Therefore, if the nonlinear component is substantial compared to the linear contribution, ...</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline

The response properties of single cells in monkey striate cortex were examined using moving bars, square-wave gratings, and sinewave gratings. 2. The majority of cells studied were not selective for bar width or for the spatial frequency of square-wave gratings. 3. Most cells responded selectively to the spatial frequency of sine-wave gratings. 4. The spatial frequency of the sine-wave grating eliciting the optimal response could not be predicted from the organization of the receptive field of each cell as determined by stationary or moving stimuli. 5. The sharpness of spatial-frequency selectivity is only slightly more pronounced in S-type cells than in CX-type cells. 6. S-type and CX-type cells differ significantly in the temporal modulation of their discharges to gratings. S-type cells discharge in sharp bursts to each cycle which traverses the receptive field. CX-type cells discharge in a rather continuous fashion. This measure can be used reliably to classify cells as S or CX type.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Quantitative Studies of Single-Cell Properties in Monkey Striate Cortex.
