Figure 6.

Comparison of the auditory (vertical axis) and visual (horizontal axis) VI for individual neurons (n = 81). Each circle represents the VI ratio for a single cell. The dashed line represents the bisector line. Circles on this line indicate cells with identical variability of response to visual and auditory stimulation. The values for visual and auditory VIs basically cover the same range. However, there are more data points located above the bisector line than above. For such neurons, the auditory VI is higher than the visual VI (see Results for details).
