Binocular depth perception and the cerebral cortex

AJ Parker - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2007 - nature.com
Our ability to coordinate the use of our left and right eyes and to make use of subtle
differences between the images received by each eye allows us to perceive stereoscopic …

Columns for complex visual object features in the inferotemporal cortex: clustering of cells with similar but slightly different stimulus selectivities

K Tanaka - Cerebral cortex, 2003 - academic.oup.com
Cells in the inferotemporal cortex (area TE) selectively respond to complex visual object
features and those that respond to similar features cluster in a columnar region elongated …

Higher order visual processing in macaque extrastriate cortex

GA Orban - Physiological reviews, 2008 - journals.physiology.org
The extrastriate cortex of primates encompasses a substantial portion of the cerebral cortex
and is devoted to the higher order processing of visual signals and their dispatch to other …

Bringing the real world into the fMRI scanner: Repetition effects for pictures versus real objects

JC Snow, CE Pettypiece, TD McAdam, AD McLean… - Scientific reports, 2011 - nature.com
Our understanding of the neural underpinnings of perception is largely built upon studies
employing 2-dimensional (2D) planar images. Here we used slow event-related functional …

The processing of three-dimensional shape from disparity in the human brain

S Georgieva, R Peeters, H Kolster, JT Todd… - Journal of …, 2009 - jneurosci.org
Three-dimensional (3D) shape is important for the visual control of gras** and
manipulation and for object recognition. Although there has been some progress in our …

3D shape perception from combined depth cues in human visual cortex

AE Welchman, A Deubelius, V Conrad… - Nature …, 2005 - nature.com
Our perception of the world's three-dimensional (3D) structure is critical for object
recognition, navigation and planning actions. To accomplish this, the brain combines …

Representation of the perceived 3-D object shape in the human lateral occipital complex

Z Kourtzi, M Erb, W Grodd, HH Bülthoff - Cerebral cortex, 2003 - academic.oup.com
We used human functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to test whether the human
lateral occipital complex (LOC), an area known to be involved in the analysis of visual …

Comparison of shape encoding in primate dorsal and ventral visual pathways

SR Lehky, AB Sereno - Journal of neurophysiology, 2007 - journals.physiology.org
Ventral and dorsal visual pathways perform fundamentally different functions. The former is
involved in object recognition, whereas the latter carries out spatial localization of stimuli …

Neuronal representations supporting three-dimensional vision in nonhuman primates

A Rosenberg, LW Thompson… - Annual Review of …, 2023 - annualreviews.org
The visual system must reconstruct the dynamic, three-dimensional (3D) world from
ambiguous two-dimensional (2D) retinal images. In this review, we synthesize current …

Representation of shapes, edges, and surfaces across multiple cues in the human visual cortex

J Vinberg, K Grill-Spector - Journal of neurophysiology, 2008 - journals.physiology.org
The lateral occipital complex (LOC) responds preferentially to objects compared with
random stimuli or textures independent of the visual cue. However, it is unknown whether …
