Cortical mechanisms of visual motion integration
Year: 2005
Type: dissertation
Abstract: Cortical middle temporal (MT) and medial superior temporal (MST) areas play an important role in visual motion processing. We studied how neurons within these areas contribute to visual motion integration and segregation. Therefore, we investigated the response properties of the cells for multiple visual stimuli in space and time. We found evidence that MT and MST neurons integrate multiple motion signals in both space and time. The results present new insights on the mechanisms of motion integration and segregation.
