Sparse coding in striate and extrastriate visual cortex
Journal of Neurophysiology, 2011 Theoretical studies of mammalian cortex argue that efficient neural codes should be sparse. However, theoretical and experimental studies have used different definitions of the term “sparse” leading to three assumptions about the nature of sparse codes. First, codes that have high lifetime sparseness require few action potentials.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1993 In primate primary visual cortex, neurons sharing similar response properties are clustered together forming functional domains that appear as a mosaic of patches or bands, often traversing the entire cortical depth from the pia to the white matter ...

A Neural Model of How Horizontal and Interlaminar Connections of Visual Cortex Develop into Adult Circuits that Carry Out Perceptual Grouping and Learning [PDF]
, 2000 A neural model suggests how horizontal and interlaminar connections in visual cortical areas Vl and V2 develop within a laminar cortical architecture and give rise to adult visual percepts.

Object repetition leads to local increases in the temporal coordination of neural responses
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2010 Experience with visual objects leads to later improvements in identification speed and accuracy (repetition priming), but generally leads to reductions in neural activity in single-cell recording studies in animals and fMRI studies in humans.
