Spatiotemporal receptive field structures in retinogeniculate connections of cat

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2013
The spatial structure of the receptive field (RF) of cat lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) neurons is significantly elliptical, which may provide a basis for the orientation tuning of LGN neurons, especially at high spatial frequency stimuli. However, the

A Feedback Model of Attention Explains the Diverse Effects of Attention on Neural Firing Rates and Receptive Field Structure. [PDF]

PLoS Computational Biology, 2016
Visual attention has many effects on neural responses, producing complex changes in firing rates, as well as modifying the structure and size of receptive fields, both in topological and feature space.

Novel and unscrutinized immune entities of the zebrafish gut

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Understudied cells of the zebrafish immune system include bona fide immune cells and epithelial (‐derived) cells with immune functions. Research focusing on zebrafish cells which demonstrate similarities to mammalian immune cell counterparts may help us understand the pathologies in which they are implicated. Currently available and advanced tools make

Scale-invariance of receptive field properties in primary visual cortex

BMC Neuroscience, 2007
Background Our visual system enables us to recognize visual objects across a wide range of spatial scales. The neural mechanisms underlying these abilities are still poorly understood.

Imeglimin attenuates liver fibrosis by inhibiting vesicular ATP release from hepatic stellate cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Imeglimin, at clinically relevant concentrations, inhibits vesicular ATP accumulation and release from hepatic stellate cells, thereby attenuating purinergic signaling and reducing fibrogenic activation. This mechanism reveals a newly identified antifibrotic action of imeglimin beyond glycemic control.

SODA²:Salient Object Detection With Structure-Adaptive & Scale-Adaptive Receptive Field

IEEE Access, 2020
Salient objects with complex shapes and arbitrary sizes are generally hard to detect, especially in cluttered background and complex scenes. Noticing the deficiency of single-feature-based methods, recent methods fused multiple features from Deep Neural ...

RAD50 missense variants differentially affect the DNA damage response and mitotic progression

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
RAD50 incorporates into the MRN complex and initiates the DNA damage response. Furthermore, RAD50 promotes mitotic progression. RAD50 missense variants capable of forming an MRN complex supported the DNA damage response and mitotic features to different extents in complementation experiments, indicating these functions are separable and might impact ...

GaussianMix: Rethinking Receptive Field for Efficient Data Augmentation

Applied Sciences
Mixed Sample Data Augmentation (MSDA) enhances deep learning model generalization by blending a source patch into a target image. Selecting source patches based on image saliency helps to prevent label errors and irrelevant content; however, it relies on

Using LIP to Gloss Over Faces in Single-Stage Face Detection Networks

, 2018
This work shows that it is possible to fool/attack recent state-of-the-art face detectors which are based on the single-stage networks. Successfully attacking face detectors could be a serious malware vulnerability when deploying a smart surveillance ...

The Essential Complexity of Auditory Receptive Fields

PLOS Computational Biology, 2015
Encoding properties of sensory neurons are commonly modeled using linear finite impulse response (FIR) filters. For the auditory system, the FIR filter is instantiated in the spectro-temporal receptive field (STRF), often in the framework of the generalized linear model.
