Researchers use AI "digital twins" to discover a new type of neuron in the visual cortex that perceives complex textures and object arrangements.

Scientists used a compact AI model to predict how visual cortex neurons respond to images, revealing hidden patterns in ...

The visual cortex is the part of the brain that enables visual perception. In this area millions of nerve cells, called ...

The visual cortex evolved to receive, process, and integrate visual information that enters the brain through the eyes. The information that is processed in the visual cortex is then transferred to ...

Every time the human eye darts from one point to another, the retinal image smears across the visual field. These rapid jumps ...

Whether we’re staring at our phones, the page of a book, or the person across the table, the objects of our focus never stand in isolation; there are always other objects or people in our field of ...

To accurately perceive the direction of moving objects, rats may exploit a small but very useful cluster of visual neurons, which seem to work in the same way as the "pattern cells" found in the ...

The visual cortex, the part of the brain that receives information from the eyes, has been known to respond to sound or touch in people who are blind. Researchers have now shown it may be unwittingly ...

In my recent post "Of Spider-Man Movies and Other 3D Thrillers," I shared a question-and-answer exchange with Dr. Barry Sandrew, founder and CTO/CCO of Legend3D, a leading innovator in 2D-to-3D ...
