A neural network model is proposed to explain the development of direction selectivity of cortical cells. The model is constructed under the following three hypotheses that are very plausible from recent neurophysiological findings. (1) Direction selectivity is developed by modifiable inhibitory syn
Kinetics of the development of orientation tuning are inferred from quantitative analysis of extracellular recordings in the primary visual cortex of normally and dark reared kittens. 712 visual cells were classified in three functional groups: a) non-specific cells, and b) immature cells which are
The development of orientation selectivity in the primary visual cortex is described by first-order kinetics between three functional compartments chained in a catenary mode. A first model is presented, in which two unidirectional kinetics with constant exchange coefficients, symmetrical in their ef
Recent experiments have studied the development of orientation selectivity in normal animals, visually deprived animals, and animals where patterns of neuronal activity have been altered. Results of these experiments indicate that orientation tuning appears very early in development, and that normal
There have been proposed several image coding methods based on the orientation-based information processing mechanism of the visual system. There has been little analysis, however, of the effects of the statistical properties of the object of coding, or the orientation-based information processing m
