12Human visual object recognition is subserved by a multitude of cortical areas. To make sense 13 of this system, one line of research focused on response properties of primary visual cortex 14 neurons and developed theoretical models of a set of canonical computations such as convolution,
15thresholding, exponentiating and normalization that could be hierarchically repeated to give 16 rise to more complex representations. Another line or research focused on response properties 17 of high-level visual cortex and linked these to semantic categories useful for object recognition. (which was not peer-reviewed) is the author/funder, who has granted bioRxiv a license to display the preprint in perpetuity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
