A central goal of neuroscience is to understand the representations formed by brain activity
patterns and their connection to behaviour. The classic approach is to investigate how …

Sensory neurons are modulated by context. For example, in mouse primary visual cortex
(V1), neuronal responses to the preferred orientation are modulated by the presence of …

The normalization model provides an elegant account of contextual modulation in individual
neurons of primary visual cortex. Understanding the implications of normalization at the …

Neuronal responses to one-dimensional orientations are combined to represent two-
dimensional composite patterns; this plays a key role in intermediate-level vision such as …

The magnitude of neural responses in sensory cortex depends on the intensity of a stimulus
and its probability of being observed within the environment. How these two variables …

Neurons in primary visual cortex (area V1) adapt in varying degrees to the average contrast
of the environment, suggesting that the representation of visual stimuli may interact with the …

Résumé Mon programme de recherche s' articule autour de l'hypothese que la dynamique
de la vision est un processus prédictif. Cette hypothese permet alors de construire une …
