2) they also show a tuning curve function. The different stages can be identified with processing by simple, complex, and hypercomplex cells in the visual cortex of mammals. The hypercomplex neuron: Has vision been thrown a curve ? The processing stages are figure-ground separation, boundary segmentation, invariant filtering, and self-organization of a pattern recognition code by an ART 2 network. Similar receptive fields were discovered in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN). Vis. Akin to simple cells, complex cell receptive fields are orientation selective. (1984) tried to draw a clear distinction between the stimulus-response relationship, on the one hand, and perceived entities, on the other. In Z.W. Cybern. The optimal stimulus for any end-stopped cell is one of a limited length. Sci. Friedrich Schumann is often credited with the discovery of illusory contours around the beginning of the 20th century, but they are present in art dating to the Middle Ages. J. Physiol. 2:279-321.

Neurophysiological, brain imaging, and perceptual studies in animals and humans suggest that illusory (occluding) contours are represented at an early level of visual cortical processing.

Illusory contour's (subjective contours) are contours perceived in the absence of a lightness or colour difference as in the Kanizsa figure. Simple cells have smaller receptive fields, that are able only to receive simple signals from a fairly small amount of fibres, whilst hyper-complex cells have larger receptive fields that respond to more specific stimuli, such as moving bars of light of correct orientation, width and length. Neural Comput. Eur. Hypercomplex cells have very large receptive fields that may combine complex cells' signals. The network nodes in these levels are analogous to cortical simple cells, complex cells, hypercomplex cells, and unoriented and oriented cooperative cells.

Physiol. Although perceiving a square involves much more than the contributions of simple and complex cells, this example illustrates that the edges and borders of a stimulus (without input from the interior) are sufficient to interpret its form. Psychophysical evidence provided in this issue of Neuron shows that perceptual contour completion is likely done in the early visual cortex in a cascade manner using horizontal connections. Peterhans E, von der Heydt R, Baumgartner G (1986) Neuronal responses to illusory contour stimuli reveal stages of visual cortical processing.

In addition to Hubel and Wiesel's wiring schemes, multiple alternative and complementary architectures have been put forth to explain the receptive fields of simple and complex cells: By 1965, the next cell type in Hubel and Wiesels hierarchy of visual processing, the hypercomplex cell, was found within Brodmann areas 18 and 19.

The illusory contour orientation is thus negatively signaled or de-emphasized in V1. Part of the Informatik aktuell book series (INFORMAT). The primate visual system. Most neurons showed this sensitivity independent of the contrast polarity that the stimuli induced at the contour, the remainder preferred a certain combination of figure-ground direction and contrast polarity.

Illusory contours are generated along the abrupt terminations that are caused by surface occlusions (middle). This phenomenon is termed end-stopping, and it is the defining property of hypercomplex cells. However, it is rarely studied in deep learning because evaluating the illusory contour perception of models trained for complex vision tasks is not straightforward.
