A crucial step towards understanding the visual system is to build models that predict neural
responses to arbitrary stimuli with high accuracy (Carandini et al., 2005). The classical …

Divisive normalization (DN) has been suggested as a canonical computation implemented
throughout the neocortex. In primary visual cortex (V1), DN was found to be crucial to …
