Title
Modelling The Functional Role Of Integration Field Of Visual Cortex Neurons
Abstract
Visual cortical neurons possess different receptive fields (RF) in spatial structures and functions. They are selective to spatial frequencies, orientations, moving direction, etc. of special stimulus. The region, call ed integration-field (IF), beyond the classical receptive fields (CRF) of the cortical neurons was found in physiological experiments. These neurons do not response to stimuli presented alone at the regions. But the responses can be modulated while the IF and CRF are stimulated simultaneously. The tuning properties of IF are similar to those of the CRF; Based on the neural circuit of CRF and IF, a two-hexagon model was proposed in order to explore the mechanism of IF. We simulate its spatial structure and the length- and width-integration curves. We investigated the functional role of IF in visual image processing.
