Versuchen Sie anhand der Folie „Arrow“ die folgenden Gesichtsfeldausfälle zu erklären. Welche Hirnstruktur, bzw. Auge wurde wie geschädigt? Es hilft sich vorzustellen, daß man Nervenbahnen zerschneiden könnte/kann. (Dunkel stellt den Gesichtsfeldausfall dar.) Linkes Auge Rechtes Auge A B C D 1

2 2 Their receptive field looks like this:
Erklären Sie in Worten weshalb das Modell unten Orientierungsselektivität im Cortex erklären kann. Was ist eigentlich Orientierungsselektivität. Was ist ein On- oder Off-subfeld? (siehe Folie „Arrow“ aber auch spätere Vorlesungen) Their receptive field looks like this: Wie sehen die rezeptiven Felder in der Retina bzw. im CGL (LGN) aus (Arrow). Weshalb können dann daraus (durch welche Verschaltung?) cortikale Felder entstehen? 2

3 3 Erklären Sie nebenstehendes Diagram in Worten (Arrow).
Wenn man mit eine Elektrode nicht exakt vertikal in den Cortex einsticht, dann mißt man eine sich mit der Elektrodenposition ändernde Orientientierungsselektivität. Ändert sich diese immer kontinuierlich? Was ist ein Vortex? (siehe hier „map“ Vorlesung) 3

18 Retinotopic Maps in V1: V1 contains a retinotopic map of the visual Field. Adjacent Neurons represent adjacent regions in the retina. That particular small retinal region from which a single neuron receives its input is called the receptive field of this neuron. V1 receives information from both eyes. Alternating regions in V1 (Ocular Dominanz Columns) receive (predominantely) Input from either the left or the right eye. Each location in the cortex represents a different part of the visual scene through the activity of many neurons. Different neurons encode different aspects of the image. For example, orientation of edges, color, motion speed and direction, etc. V1 decomposes an image into these components. Molekules Synapses Neurons Local Nets Areas Systems CNS

19 Orientation selectivity in V1:
stimulus Orientation selective neurons in V1 change their activity (i.e., their frequency for generating action potentials) depending on the orientation of a light bar projected onto the receptive Field. These Neurons, thus, represent the orientation of lines oder edges in the image. Their receptive field looks like this: Molekules Synapses Neurons Local Nets Areas Systems CNS

20 Superpositioning of maps in V1:
Thus, neurons in V1 are orientation selective. They are, however, also selective for retinal position and ocular dominance as well as for color and motion. These are called „features“. The neurons are therefore akin to „feature-detectors“. For each of these parameter there exists a topographic map. These maps co-exist and are superimposed onto each other. In this way at every location in the cortex one finds a neuron which encodes a certain „feature“. This principle is called „full coverage“. Molekules Synapses Neurons Local Nets Areas Systems CNS

24 Considerations for a Cortex Model
Input Structure of the visual pathway Anatomy of the Cortex Cell Types Connections Topography of the Cortex „X-Y Pixel-Space“ and its distortion Ocularity-Map Orientation-Map Color Functional Connectivity of the cortex Connection Weights Physiological charateristics of the neurons At least all these things need to be considered when making a „complete“ cortex model

25 Structure of a Neuron: At the dendrite the incoming
signals arrive (incoming currents) At the soma current are finally integrated. At the axon hillock action potential are generated if the potential crosses the membrane threshold The axon transmits (transports) the action potential to distant sites Molekules Synapses Neurons Local Nets Areas Systems CNS At the synapses are the outgoing signals transmitted onto the dendrites of the target neurons
