High Accuracy Decoding of Dynamical Motion from a Large Retinal Population
Fig 5
Coding for motion in the receptive field surround in the salamander retina.
A: Schematic of the experiment: the bar is randomly moved at three different average locations relative to the array. B, C, D: Prediction of the bar’s trajectory using the linear decoding (black); real trajectory (red), for the three average locations above. E: Performance of linear decoding (blue) for individual ganglion cells (dots) plotted as a function of the distance between their receptive field center coordinate and the average bar position; probability distribution of bar position (black). Blue line: average decoding performance as a function of the distance. F: Performance of linear decoding (blue) for individual ganglion cells (blue dots) plotted as a function of the normalized distance between their receptive field and the average bar position (see text). Blue line: average decoding performance as a function of the normalized distance.
