Lateral spread of orientation selectivity in V1 is controlled by intracortical cooperativity

Lateral spread of orientation selectivity in V1 is controlled by intracortical cooperativity

Neurons in the primary visual cortex receive subliminal information originating from the periphery of their receptive fields through a variety of cortical connections. In the cat primary visual cortex, long-range horizontal axons have been reported to preferentially bind to distant columns of simila...
