This study examines how changes in stimulus statistics affect V1 neuron receptive fields, finding increased nonlinear processing and additional filters under natural scenes.

This paper proposes a biologically plausible model for learning complex cells in V1 using BCM rule-based plasticity, showing it can replicate experimental diversity in receptive field properties.

The paper was withdrawn due to a duplicate posting and directs readers to the current version on bioRxiv.

This study investigates how selectivity and invariance in primary visual cortex cells are balanced, revealing that phase invariance is partial and invariance to orientation and spatial frequency is more extensive than previously thought.
