Coding characteristics of spiking local interneurons during imposed limb movements in the locust.

abstract：:1. The selectivity of adaptation to unidirectional motion was examined in neurons of the cat striate cortex. Following prolonged stimulation with a unidirectional high-contrast grating, the responsivity of cortical neurons was reduced. In many units this decrease was restricted to the direction of prior stimulation. T...
