--- res: bibo_abstract: - Statistics of natural scenes are not uniform - their structure varies dramatically from ground to sky. It remains unknown whether these non-uniformities are reflected in the large-scale organization of the early visual system and what benefits such adaptations would confer. Here, by relying on the efficient coding hypothesis, we predict that changes in the structure of receptive fields across visual space increase the efficiency of sensory coding. We show experimentally that, in agreement with our predictions, receptive fields of retinal ganglion cells change their shape along the dorsoventral retinal axis, with a marked surround asymmetry at the visual horizon. Our work demonstrates that, according to principles of efficient coding, the panoramic structure of natural scenes is exploited by the retina across space and cell-types.@eng bibo_authorlist: - foaf_Person: foaf_givenName: Divyansh foaf_name: Gupta, Divyansh foaf_surname: Gupta foaf_workInfoHomepage: http://www.librecat.org/personId=2A485EBE-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 orcid: 0000-0001-7400-6665 - foaf_Person: foaf_givenName: Wiktor F foaf_name: Mlynarski, Wiktor F foaf_surname: Mlynarski foaf_workInfoHomepage: http://www.librecat.org/personId=358A453A-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 - foaf_Person: foaf_givenName: Anton L foaf_name: Sumser, Anton L foaf_surname: Sumser foaf_workInfoHomepage: http://www.librecat.org/personId=3320A096-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 orcid: 0000-0002-4792-1881 - foaf_Person: foaf_givenName: Olga foaf_name: Symonova, Olga foaf_surname: Symonova foaf_workInfoHomepage: http://www.librecat.org/personId=3C0C7BC6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 orcid: 0000-0003-2012-9947 - foaf_Person: foaf_givenName: Jan foaf_name: Svaton, Jan foaf_surname: Svaton foaf_workInfoHomepage: http://www.librecat.org/personId=f7f724c3-9d6f-11ed-9f44-e5c5f3a5bee2 orcid: 0000-0002-6198-2939 - foaf_Person: foaf_givenName: Maximilian A foaf_name: Jösch, Maximilian A foaf_surname: Jösch foaf_workInfoHomepage: http://www.librecat.org/personId=2BD278E6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 orcid: 0000-0002-3937-1330 bibo_doi: 10.1038/s41593-023-01280-0 bibo_volume: 26 dct_date: 2023^xs_gYear dct_identifier: - UT:000955258300002 dct_isPartOf: - http://id.crossref.org/issn/1097-6256 - http://id.crossref.org/issn/1546-1726 dct_language: eng dct_publisher: Springer Nature@ dct_title: Panoramic visual statistics shape retina-wide organization of receptive fields@ fabio_hasPubmedId: '36959418' ...
