“…The RF of a real simple cell is composed of excitatory and inhibitory sub-regions. This composition has been mapped using local stimulus probes such as a light spot (Hubel & Wiesel, 1959;Volgushev, Vidyasagar, & Pei, 1996), a light bar (Andrews & Pollen, 1979), light and dark bars (Movshon et al, 1978b;Tadmor & Tolhurst, 1989;Kulikowski & Bishop, 1981;Kulikowski & Vidyasagar, 1986;Glezer, Tsherbach, Gauselman, & Bondarko, 1982), and the reverse correlation method (Nishimoto, Ishida, & Ohzawa, 2006;Ringach, 2002;Moore IV & Freeman, 2012; see also Gardner, Anzai, Ohzawa, & Freeman, 1999b). The classical RF of the DNM simple cell was also mapped using these methods (Figures 21 and 22, Phenomena 28 and 29).…”
