  Visual representation and perception
  Author(s): Ricardo Gattass*, Bruss Lima, Juliana Guimarães Martins Soares and Mario Fiora
  
  Serial hierarchical processing, parallel processing and remapping on a dynamic network of several cortical visual areas are accountable for visual perception. Perception is organized in craniometric coordinates based on retinotopic maps of the layers of the lateral geniculate nucleus that project to the visuotopic map in the primary visual cortex. After perceptual completion and filing in the neural representation, it becomes a binocular visuotopic representation. Perceptual completion hosts integration, which implies the reconstruction of the form perception of partial contour information. The V1 visuotopic map creates a stereoscopic map based on the disparity of the monocular information. This stereoscopic map is distinct from each of the monocular maps, although there is one eye that is always dominant for the location of a target. Craniocentric neural representation of the visu..
