Parameter values for the DoG model

Parameter Value Reference
Cones per mm2 M = ⌈19890x−0.6331 Packer et al., 1989
Global retinal L:M PDF G = 10.74w2π×exp{(lnw0.47)21.09} Where w = L/M weight; Dacey et al., 2000b
Dendritic field radius (mm) D = 0.002738x1.327 Crook et al., 2014; current study
Center radius Rc = D
Surround radius Rs = 6D Croner and Kaplan, 1995
RF σ σc = Rc; σs = Rs Field et al., 2010
RF μ μ = 0 All centered around zero
Cones to center nc = ‖0.29x2 + 0.83x − 0.28‖ Crook et al., 2014
Cones to surround ns = nc×(RsRc)2
Cone radius H = 3.995 × exp(0.0163x) − 3.149 × exp( − 1.288x) Packer et al, 1989
Center weighting kc = 1
Surround weighting ks = [0.5, 0.9] Croner and Kaplan, 1995 (0.5); Lennie et al., 1991 (0.91)
Center Gaussian weighting kernel KQc(di) = Kc×exp(di22σ2),di=[0,Rc] Where d is the distance of a single cone, i, from the origin
Surround Gaussian weighting kernel KQs(dj) = Kc×exp(dj22σ2),dj=[0,Rs] Where d is the distance of a single cone, j, from the origin

x, Retinal location, expressed in millimeters of temporal equivalent eccentricity (Watanabe and Rodieck, 1989).
