Figure 7.
The detect probability with and without the effect of microsaccades. The histograms show the difference between the detect probabilities calculated using all trials and using trials with microsaccades near stimulus onset excluded. Detect probability was computed either using all trials or removing trials where a microsaccade occurred near stimulus onset. Only neurons with 15 correct and failed trials were included in this analysis. For the speed-pulse and motion-pulse experiment, trials were removed if a microsaccade occurred from 200 ms before to 100 ms after the stimulus onset. For the motion-step experiment, the window was from 100 ms before to 200 ms after for C and D and from 200 ms before to 50 ms after for E. A, Speed-pulse in LIP; B, speed-pulse in MT; C, motion-step in MT; D, motion-step in VIP, late window; E, motion-step in VIP, early window; F, 50 ms motion-pulse in MT.
