EEG Correlates of Relative Motion Encoding

Michael Herzog, Gijs Plomp, Yvonne Evelina Thunell

A large portion of the visual cortex is organized retinotopically, but perception is usually non-retinotopic. For example, a reflector on the spoke of a bicycle wheel appears to move on a circular or prolate cycloidal orbit as the bicycle moves forward, wh ...

Putting low-level vision into global context: Why vision cannot be reduced to basic circuits

Michael Herzog, Yvonne Evelina Thunell

To cope with the complexity of vision, most models in neuroscience and computer vision are of hierarchical and feedforward nature. Low-level vision, such as edge and motion detection, is explained by basic low-level neural circuits, whose outputs serve as ...

Retinotopic encoding of the Ternus-Pikler display reflected in the early visual areas

Michael Herzog, Wietske Van der Zwaag, Gijs Plomp, Yvonne Evelina Thunell

The visual representation of the world is often assumed to be retinotopic, and many visual brain areas are indeed organized retinotopically. Visual perception, however, is not based on a reference frame anchored in retinotopic coordinates. For example, whe ...

EEG and fMRI correlates of non-retinotopic motion processing in the human visual system

Different colors of light lead to different adaptation and activation as determined by high-density EEG

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Michael Herzog, Mirjam Münch, Gijs Plomp, Yvonne Evelina Thunell

Light adaptation is crucial for coping with the varying levels of ambient light. Using high-density electroencephalography (EEG), we investigated how adaptation to light of different colors affects brain responsiveness. In a within-subject design, sixteen ...

Neural correlates of non-retinotopic processing in human visual cortex as determined by 7T fMRI and high-density EEG

Michael Herzog, Wietske Van der Zwaag, Gijs Plomp, Yvonne Evelina Thunell

Human perception is largely non-retinotopic. A bike passes by; we perceive the reflectors on its wheels rotating on a circular orbit. However, the “real” motion is truly different, namely cycloidal. The real, retinotopic motion is invisible because the bik ...

Neural correlates of non-retinotopic visual processing and light adaptation

Yvonne Evelina Thunell

In the main part of this thesis, I investigate the neural correlates of nonretinotopic processing. We might intuitively think of the visual representation of the world as retinotopic, as is the case for the organization of most visual brain areas, but in f ...

The neural correlates of non-retinotopic motion integration as revealed by high-density EEG

Michael Herzog, Gijs Plomp, Yvonne Evelina Thunell

Under normal viewing conditions, due to the motion of objects and to eye movements, the retinotopic representation of the environment constantly changes. Yet we perceive the world as stable, and we easily keep track of moving objects. Here, we investigated ...

How are non-retinotopic motion signals integrated? -A high-density EEG study

Michael Herzog, Gijs Plomp, Yvonne Evelina Thunell

Objects moving in the visual scene cause retinal displacements that are not the result of motor commands and thus cannot be accounted for by efference copies. Yet, we easily keep track of moving objects even without following them with our gaze. Here, we i ...

The neural correlates of non-retinotopic processing in human visual cortex: a 7T fMRI study

Michael Herzog, Wietske Van der Zwaag, Gijs Plomp, Yvonne Evelina Thunell

Under normal viewing conditions, due to e.g. the motion of objects, the retinotopic representation of the environment constantly changes. Yet we perceive the world as stable and we easily keep track of moving objects, indicating the presence of non-retinot ...
