Neural processing of natural scenes in the visual cortex
Abstract The retina and visual cortex represents visual information in the form of a complex set of electrical signals to support visual behavior and memory. Although we have learned a great deal about how simple visual patterns such as striped gratings lead to neural activity in the early visual system, we know little about how natural visual scenes are represented during behavior, and how the active process of gathering visual information through body and eye movements influences this process. Visual processing becomes progressively more complex towards higher levels in the brain. Compared to primates, mice combine strong motor input with visual input at an earlier level in the visual…
