Figure 6. Completeness of adaptation.

The two panels show histograms of the completeness metric for Monkey A (A) and Monkey C (B). For both panels: solid vertical lines, means of distributions; solid horizontal lines, mean $\pm$ SE; dashed vertical lines, zero point representing no dynamic range adaptation. For both monkeys, histograms were distributed significantly away from the zero point (Monkey A: ***$P<{10}^{-5}$, Wilcoxon signed-rank test, $W=3580$, ${\displaystyle ◊◊◊P<{10}^{-3}}$, sign test, $S=68$, $n=95$ units; Monkey C: ***$P<{10}^{-4}$, $W=570$, ${\displaystyle ◊◊◊P<{10}^{-3}}$, $S=29$, $n=35$ units). The means ($\pm$ SE) of the metrics were 0.5157 ($\pm$ 0.1121) for Monkey A and 0.6793 ($\pm$ 0.1233) for Monkey C. Data to recreate these plots is available in Figure 6—source data 1.
