The analysis of visual motion: a comparison of neuronal and psychophysical performance
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
The ability of psychophysical observers and single cortical neurons to discriminate weak motion signals in a stochastic visual display is compared and psychophysical decisions in this task are likely to be based upon a relatively small number of neural signals.
