The latest field of 64 projections from On3Sports has Georgia Tech heading to a familiar place to play their regional.
This second round of testing revealed significant differences: both migraine and headache groups displayed increased excitability in the visual cortex compared to the control group. In contrast, no ...
The main limitations relate to the anatomical annotation of 'putative' PrS L4 neurons, and to the presentation of retrosplenial/thalamic input modularity. Specifically, more evidence should be ...
The visual cortex is just one element of embodied AI, however. For a robot to work completely autonomously in the real world, it must also be capable of manipulating real-world objects.
HBP researchers have trained a large-scale model of the primary visual cortex of the mouse to solve visual tasks in a highly robust way. The model provides the basis for a new generation of neural ...
The visual cortex, the part of the brain that receives information from the eyes, has been known to respond to sound or touch in people who are blind. Researchers have now shown it may be ...
Injuries to the posterior occipital cortex are common in humans. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) can lead to long-term visual impairment (like loss of visual acuity).
Much like the Mercator projection is to cartography, retinotopic maps in the visual cortex are thought to follow a widely adopted and well-characterized pattern.
The volunteer wore special glasses equipped with a small camera to capture visual data. That information was then encoded and sent to an implant in the volunteer’s visual cortex. The implant, a ...
The visual cortex itself is further subdivided into five distinct areas based on functional and structural classifications. These five areas are known as V 1-5.
New research from Washington University in St. Louis reveals that neurons in the visual cortex — the part of the brain that processes visual stimuli — change their responses to the same ...
