The representations of visual hemifields in the extrastriate areas of various species exhibitfield discontinuities and islands. We propose that these violations of retinotopy area developmental consequence of the elongated shape of the respective cortical areas. Tosubstantiate this claim, we investigate a model of activity driven map formation. In agreementwith observations, this model yields maps with field discontinuities if the corticalareas exceed a threshold elongation. Moreover,... |
