    Abstract:

    We have examined the orientation, direction selectivity and receptive field size by extracellular recording for 82 V1 neurons of cat. Based on the area-summation measurements, 82 units were classified as 52 suppressive surround cells (SSCs) and 30 non-suppressive surround cells (nSSCs). Our results showed nSSCs have much sharper orientation selectivity and narrower tuning width than SSCs. No significant difference was found in direction selectivity between SSCs and nSSCs. SSCs have larger peak firing rates than the nSSCs. Two methods were used in measuring the receptive field size, but arises different results in comparison of SSCs and nSSCs.
