Question

distinguish between simple cell and complex cell​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The difference between the receptive fields and the characteristics of simple and complex cells is the hierarchical convergent nature of visual processing. Complex cells receive inputs from a number of simple cells. ... The manner through which simple cells are able to make up complex cells is not fully understood.

Answer 2

Answer:

Simple Cells found mainly in V1 layers 4 and 6.

have distinct excitatory and inhibitory regions within RF;

linearity of spatial summation within both the excitatory and inhibitory regions (a stimulus covering larger area inside excitatory region evokes larger response than a stimulus covering a smaller area in the region);

antagonism between the excitatory and inhibitory regions (stimuli covering both regions are ineffective in evoking a response as the excitatory and inhibitory responses are canceled out).

Explanation:

Complex Cells found mainly in V1 layers 2, 3 and 5.

have no clear division of excitatory and inhibitory regions inside their RFs;

a bar with width about one third to one half of the width of the RF in the optimal orientation of the cell will evoke maximal response, independent of where it is placed inside the RF;

a stimulus with uniform intensity covering the entire RF will evoke no response.
