A theory of the primitive spatial code in human vision.

abstract：:The spectral sensitivity of the extracellularly-recorded photoresponse of isolated rods of the tiger salamander, Ambystoma tigrinum, was compared to the absorptance spectrum. Both measurements were made with the same optical system on the same portion of each cell to avoid errors that could occur when the two kinds of...

abstract：:Perceptual learning (PL) has been traditionally thought of as highly specific to stimulus properties, task and retinotopic position. This view is being progressively challenged, with accumulating evidence that learning can generalize (transfer) across various parameters under certain conditions. For example, retinotop...
