Reduction of false peaks by the suppressive pool. A, A population of disparity detectors was created using an identified model (ruf1844). One population had only the excitatory pool, whereas the other used the full model. The responses of the populations to a single static image are shown. B, The height of the true peak (at −0.1°) relative to the false peak was calculated for both models in response to 1000 different images. The difference in height is plotted for the full model against the excitatory pool only. The white cross indicates the mean of the response difference pairs. C, The simulations are summarized by the mean for each cell. The filled symbols indicate the cells with an even-symmetric excitatory pool.
