Behavioural improvements with thalamic stimulation after severe traumatic brain injury

ND Schiff, JT Giacino, K Kalmar, JD Victor, K Baker… - Nature, 2007 - nature.com
Widespread loss of cerebral connectivity is assumed to underlie the failure of brain mechanisms
that support communication and goal-directed behaviour following severe traumatic …

Nature and precision of temporal coding in visual cortex: a metric-space analysis

JD Victor, KP Purpura - Journal of neurophysiology, 1996 - journals.physiology.org
1. We recorded single-unit and multi-unit activity in response to transient presentation of texture
and grating patterns at 25 sites within the parafoveal representation of V1, V2, and V3 of …

The effect of contrast on the transfer properties of cat retinal ganglion cells.

RM Shapley, JD Victor - The Journal of physiology, 1978 - Wiley Online Library
1. Variation in stimulus contrast produces a marked effect on the dynamics of the cat retina.
This contrast effect was investigated by measurement of the responses of X and Y ganglion …

Metric-space analysis of spike trains: theory, algorithms and application

JD Victor, KP Purpura - Network: computation in neural systems, 1997 - Taylor & Francis
We present the mathematical basis of a new approach to the analysis of temporal coding.
The foundation of the approach is the construction of several families of novel distances (…

An integrated functional magnetic resonance imaging procedure for preoperative mapping of cortical areas associated with tactile, motor, language, and visual …

J Hirsch, MI Ruge, KHS Kim, DD Correa, JD Victor… - …, 2000 - journals.lww.com
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate an integrated battery of preoperative functional magnetic resonance
imaging (fMRI) tasks developed to identify cortical areas associated with tactile, motor, …

Sparse coding and high-order correlations in fine-scale cortical networks

…, F Mechler, KP Purpura, AM Schmid, Q Hu, JD Victor - Nature, 2010 - nature.com
Connectivity in the cortex is organized at multiple scales 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , suggesting that
scale-dependent correlated activity is particularly important for understanding the behaviour of …

A new statistic for steady-state evoked potentials

JD Victor, J Mast - Electroencephalography and clinical neurophysiology, 1991 - Elsevier
Steady-state evoked potentials are often characterized by the amplitude and phase of the
Fourier component at one or more frequencies of interest. We introduce a new statistic for the …

Independent and redundant information in nearby cortical neurons

DS Reich, F Mechler, JD Victor - Science, 2001 - science.org
In the primary visual cortex (V1), nearby neurons are tuned to similar stimulus features, and,
depending on the manner and time scale over which neuronal signals are analyzed, the …

Determination of awareness in patients with severe brain injury using EEG power spectral analysis

AM Goldfine, JD Victor, MM Conte, JC Bardin… - Clinical …, 2011 - Elsevier
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether EEG spectral analysis could be used to demonstrate
awareness in patients with severe brain injury. METHODS: We recorded EEG from healthy …

Visual discrimination of textures with identical third-order statistics

B Julesz, EN Gilbert, JD Victor - Biological cybernetics, 1978 - Springer
We found a new class of two-dimensional random textures with identical third-order
statistics that can be effortlessly discriminated. Discrimination is based on local “granularity” …
