Convolutional neural network models of the primate retina reveal adaptation to natural stimulus statistics

Authors Vystrčilová M, Sridhar S, Burg MF, Gollisch T, Ecker AS Journal BioRxiv Citation bioRxiv 2024.03.06.583740. Abstract The diverse nature of visual environments demands that the retina, the first stage of the visual system, encodes a vast range of stimuli with various statistics. The retina adapts its computations to some
