θ1 | orientation preference of point 1; |
θ2 | orientation preference of point 2; |
s1 | orientation selectivity of point 1; |
s2 | orientation selectivity of point 2; |
r | cortical distance between points 1 and 2; |
φ | angle of the line from point 1 to point 2; |
α = θ2 − θ1 | relative orientation preference of the two points; |
β = φ − θ1 | angular position of the second point relative to the orientation preference of the first point. |
