Figure 1. Top: small receptive fields.

Figure 1

A larger stimulus engages more neurons; VEPs for individual quadrants sum up linearly to the full stimulus VEP. Bottom: large receptive fields. A larger stimulus engages the same neurons; neuronal responses saturate, VEPs for individual quadrants sum up nonlinearly to the full stimulus VEP. The neuronal response input–output nonlinearity is illustrated on the right.
