[HTML][HTML] Polar angle asymmetries in visual perception and neural architecture
Human visual performance changes with visual field location. It is best at the center of gaze
and declines with eccentricity, and also varies markedly with polar angle. These perceptual …

Linking individual differences in human primary visual cortex to contrast sensitivity around the visual field
A central question in neuroscience is how the organization of cortical maps relates to
perception, for which human primary visual cortex (V1) is an ideal model system. V1 …

Variations in crowding, saccadic precision, and spatial localization reveal the shared topology of spatial vision
Visual sensitivity varies across the visual field in several characteristic ways. For example,
sensitivity declines sharply in peripheral (vs. foveal) vision and is typically worse in the …

Comparing retinotopic maps of children and adults reveals a late-stage change in how V1 samples the visual field
Adult visual performance differs with angular location–it is better for stimuli along the
horizontal than vertical, and lower than upper vertical meridian of the visual field. These …

Radial asymmetries in population receptive field size and cortical magnification factor in early visual cortex
MF Silva, JW Brascamp, S Ferreira, M Castelo-Branco… - NeuroImage, 2018 - Elsevier
Human visual cortex does not represent the whole visual field with the same detail. Changes
in receptive field size, population receptive field (pRF) size and cortical magnification factor …

Cortical magnification eliminates differences in contrast sensitivity across but not around the visual field
Human visual performance changes dramatically both across (eccentricity) and around
(polar angle) the visual field. Performance is better at the fovea, decreases with eccentricity …

Activity in perirhinal and entorhinal cortex predicts perceived visual similarities among category exemplars with highest precision
Vision neuroscience has made great strides in understanding the hierarchical organization
of object representations along the ventral visual stream (VVS). How VVS representations …

[HTML][HTML] Mapping spatial frequency preferences across human primary visual cortex
Neurons in primate visual cortex (area V1) are tuned for spatial frequency, in a manner that
depends on their position in the visual field. Several studies have examined this …

The critical role of V2 population receptive fields in visual orientation crowding
Crowding, the identification difficulty for a target in the presence of nearby flankers, is an
essential bottleneck for object recognition and visual awareness [1, 2]. As suggested by …

[HTML][HTML] Individual differences in looking at persons in scenes
Individuals freely viewing complex scenes vary in their fixation behavior. The most
prominent and reliable dimension of such individual differences is the tendency to fixate …
