The potential coding utility of intercell cross-correlations in the retina
The action potentials (impulses) produced by pairs of neighboring retinal ganglion cells often show a tendency either to fire in close temporal synchrony or to avoid temporal synchrony. This cross-correlation ...

Models for the cross-correlation between retinal ganglion cells
Neighboring ganglion cells in the vertebrate retina not only respond to the same stimuli but also display cross-correlated activity on a millisecond time scale. Recent studies of this cross-correlation have i...

Tailoring of variability in the lateral geniculate nucleus of the cat
Variability is usually considered an unwanted component in a sensory signal, yet the visual system does not seem to filter out the noise. On the contrary, noise is ‘tailored’ to scale with the signal size. We...

A method for obtaining single cell responses in the optic tract of self-respiring fish
This paper describes a preparation for recording action potentials from the central nervous system of an intact self-respiring fish. The cervical spinal cord of the anesthetized fish was lesioned to minimize b...

A system for controlling the light output of a monochromator by any simple function and for temporally modulating the intensity
This paper describes an apparatus that controls the output of a monochromator so that the energies in each waveband can be equated according to any desired function. A photocell monitors the light from the mon...
