A mathematical model of retinal receptive fields capable of form and color analysis
In an effort to understand the workings of the retinal receptive fields, Enroth-Cugell and Robson developed a mathematical model that utilized the difference-of-Gaussian (DOG) function, an equation in which the inhibitory portion of a receptive field is subtracted from the excitatory portion.
