Color opponency in horizontal cells of the vertebrate retina

G Twig, H Levy, I Perlman - Progress in retinal and eye research, 2003 - Elsevier
Chromaticity (C-type) horizontal cells have been studied extensively for more than 40 years
since the first recording of such units in the fish retina. C-type horizontal cells are seen in …

A self-regulating gap junction network of amacrine cells controls nitric oxide release in the retina

J Jacoby, A Nath, ZF Jessen, GW Schwartz - Neuron, 2018 - cell.com
Neuromodulators regulate circuits throughout the nervous system, and revealing the cell
types and stimulus conditions controlling their release is vital to understanding their function …

Horizontal cell receptive fields are reduced in connexin57‐deficient mice

J Shelley, K Dedek, T Schubert… - European Journal of …, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
Horizontal cells are coupled by gap junctions; the extensive coupling of the horizontal cells
is reflected in their large receptive fields, which extend far beyond the dendritic arbor of the …

[BOOK][B] A neural model of surface perception: Lightness, anchoring, and filling-in

YS Hong - 2004 - search.proquest.com
This study develops a neural model of how the visual system may process natural images
under variable illumination conditions to generate surface lightness percepts. It is known that …

[HTML][HTML] Gradient representation and perception in the early visual system—a novel account of Mach band formation

MS Keil, G Cristobal, H Neumann - Vision Research, 2006 - Elsevier
Recent evidence suggests that object surfaces and their properties are represented at early
stages in the visual system of primates. Most likely invariant surface properties are extracted …

A model of spatiotemporal signal processing by primate cones and horizontal cells

JH Van Hateren - Journal of Vision, 2007 - jov.arvojournals.org
A model of spatiotemporal signal processing by the cone–horizontal cell circuit in the
primate outer retina is developed and validated using measurements on the H1 horizontal …

A neural model of the locust visual system for detection of object approaches with real-world scenes

MS Keil, E Roca-Moreno… - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2018 - arxiv.org
In the central nervous systems of animals like pigeons and locusts, neurons were identified
which signal objects approaching the animal on a direct collision course. Unraveling the …

Smooth gradient representations as a unifying account of Chevreul's illusion, Mach bands, and a variant of the Ehrenstein disk

MS Keil - Neural Computation, 2006 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Recent evidence suggests that the primate visual system generates representations for
object surfaces (where we consider representations for the surface attribute brightness) …

Simulation analysis of receptive-field size of retinal horizontal cells by ionic current model

T Aoyama, Y Kamiyama, S Usui - Visual neuroscience, 2005 - cambridge.org
The size of the receptive field of retinal horizontal cells changes with the state of dark/light
adaptation. We have used a mathematical model to determine how changes in the …

Local to global normalization dynamic by nonlinear local interactions

MS Keil - Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena, 2008 - Elsevier
Here, I present a novel method for normalizing a finite set of numbers, which is studied by
the domain of biological vision. Normalizing in this context means searching the maximum …
