Wiesel, TN (English spelling)

…Later, Masao Ito and others began to provide a physiological basis for this model, which has attracted attention as an example of the model's effectiveness. Regarding the visual nervous system, DH Hubel and TN Wiesel conducted neurophysiological research into the hierarchical structure of feature extraction. According to this research, the cells at the first level of the hierarchical structure are each responsible for detecting lines in a specific direction. …

...However, on the other hand, the mechanism that maintains homeostasis also causes various optical illusions.
[Neurophysiological research into perception]
Research in this field has developed rapidly since DH Hubel and TN Wiesel discovered cells in the cat's visual cortex that respond to thin slits, black lines, and edges in 1963. The visual cortex also contains cells that detect binocular disparity, retinal image movement, and color contrast, and these process information for stereoscopic vision, motion vision, and color perception.
