First, the temporaltuningfunctionfor parallel motion was obtained by averaging the responses for the opposite directions of motion.
From theCambridge English Corpus
For descriptive and analytical purposes, a single cycle of a sine wave was fit to each neuron's phasetuningfunction.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The spectral absorptance of the large ellipsosome located within the inner segment was also measured to determine whether this intracellular structure has a spectraltuningfunction.
From theCambridge English Corpus
We calculated the joint spatial frequency-orientationtuningfunctionas follows.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The frequency was a function of the velocity of the electrons, providing thetuningfunction.
From
Wikipedia
These joint tuning functions in turn were used as a basis for estimating response redundancy in the two areas.
From theCambridge English Corpus
We assume that the spatial-frequency and orientation tuning functions are separable at a fixed temporal frequency.
From theCambridge English Corpus
We then took the ratio of the two average temporal tuning functions at each temporal frequency.
From theCambridge English Corpus
First, consider the shapes of the spatial tuning functions for parallel and perpendicular motion.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Second, consider the shapes of the temporal tuning functions for parallel and perpendicular motion.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The results of this analysis indicate that the shapes of the temporal tuning functions are quite similar for parallel motion and perpendicular motion.
From theCambridge English Corpus
If the shapes of the temporal-frequency tuning functions are the same for both parallel and perpendicular motion, then the points should fall on a straight line through the origin.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Third, consider the similarity of the average response amplitudes of the temporal-frequency tuning functions for parallel and perpendicular motion.
