Surface representation by population coding
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 21 (6):761-762 (1998)
| Abstract | Although there is empirical evidence of neural filling-in, this does not necessarily entail “isomorphic” theory. Most cortical neurons do not respond to a uniform surface and are instead sensitive to surface size and quality. I propose that a population of such neurons encodes the presence of a surface. This scheme is different from either the “cognitive” or “isomorphic” theories. | |||||||||
