Perception I

Question 1

Simple cells

Answer 1

Orientation selectiveDiscrete ON and OFF regions
Position sensitive
Linear – predict output from adding + and - region

Question 2

Complex cells

Answer 2

Orientation selective
Responds to spots all over receptive field
Not position sensitive
Non-linear – cannot predict output from addition
