Schematic representation of experience-dependent firing rate changes in putative excitatory and putative inhibitory units. (A) Firing rates of putative excitatory neurons are arranged in descending order of effectiveness. In this cell class, visual experience increased responses to the most effective stimuli, particularly in the early epoch, and decreased responses to moderately effective stimuli, especially in the late epoch. (B) Same as in (A) but for putative inhibitory units. Visual experience caused a much more widespread and noticeable decline in firing rates of these neurons. This change was most prominent in the late epoch.
