lateral inhibition

The traditional way of explaining this is through lateral inhibition.

Lateral inhibition is one proposal to explain the contrast illusion.

Lateral inhibition is required for many types of cell fate determination.

However, to our knowledge, until now direct evidence for lateral inhibition in the vertebrate central nervous system has not been reported.

Lateral inhibition increases the contrast and sharpness in visual response.

This is interesting because lateral inhibition cannot explain this occurrence.

Lateral inhibition is well documented in flies, worms and vertebrates.

The amacrine cells also introduce lateral inhibition, however, its role is not yet well understood.

The effect of both optical illusions is often explained by a neural process called lateral inhibition.

Lateral inhibition means that one cell's excitation inhibits its close neighbours.

Around the 1970s, this theory has been developed into lateral inhibition theory by Blakemore et al.

Thus, lateral inhibition mechanisms are key to Notch signaling.

This is most likely due to a reduction in lateral inhibition in the neural network.

There are also considerable similarities in the immediate processing of stimuli by lateral inhibition.

Through lateral inhibition, a pattern in which one image, when stimulated, inhibit the activity of neighboring images.

These proteins are involved in lateral inhibition in embryogenesis.

This filtering is largely performed in the retina itself, by lateral inhibition among its neurons.

To examine this directly, we performed experiments designed to test whether lateral inhibition patterns primary motor neurons.

Cowan set up a mathematical equation that represented the neural activity, and built lateral inhibition into it.

At the neural network level, it is thought that processes like lateral inhibition mediate the process of competitive selection.

Cowan believes that a phenomenon known as lateral inhibition is responsible for the patterns generated by hallucinogens.

The low frequency drop-off is due to lateral inhibition within the retinal ganglion cells.

They doubted that illusory perceptions of brightness were explained as consequences of lateral inhibition.

Lateral inhibition sharpens the spatial profile of excitation in response to a localized stimulus.

Lateral inhibition can't explain White's illusion.
