| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It has been reported that the exposure of kittens to a single orientation induced a marked over-representation of the experienced orientation in the primary visual cortex. Such a structural alteration in orientation maps raises a question of how the animals can perceive visual images using the maps. To address this question theoretically, we made a decoding model that reconstruct the visual image inputted to the model retina; and we applied the orientation maps obtained from our activity-dependent self-organization model of geniculo-cortical afferent inputs. In normal experience simulations, the similarity index (SI) between stimulus images and reconstructed images increased with the orientation tuning of individual simple cells become sharper. On the other hand, in vertical-orientation experience simulations, the value of SI for horizontal stimulus gratings was smaller than the vertical ones, but horizontal grating images were reconstructed better than expected.
