Precise Restoration of Cortical Orientation Maps Explained by Hebbian Dynamics of Geniculocortical Connections |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
It is widely assumed that experience dependence and variability of the individual layout of cortical columns are the hallmarks of activity-dependent self-organization during development. Recent optical imaging studies of visual cortical development seem to indicate a lack of such intinsic variability in visual cortical development. These studies showed that orientation maps which were forced to form independently for the left and right eye exhibited a high degree of similarity in area 18 of cat visual cortex [7, 4]. It has been argued that this result must be viewed are evidence for an innate predetermination of orientation preference if orientation preference is determined by the pattern of geniculocortical connections. |
