This book deals with information processing in the primate temporal visual cortex, one of the higher visual association areas, which is believed to be important for the representation of complex stimuli and may also play a role in visual memory. Here, the need for rapid information processing shapes the functional architecture of all sensory systems, acting to reduce, where possible, wiring length and the number of synapses, to allow faster processing.
1 The Visual System.- 2. The Representation of Complex Stimuli.- 3. Information Measures.- 4. Visual Masking.- 5. Population Encoding.- 6. Visual Integration.- 7. The Speed of Thought.
A discussion of how sensory information is processed, represented and affected by temporal considerations.
