Abstract

The theoretical autocorrelation of the cat ganglion cell discharge under stationary and dynamic conditions of light stimulus is compared with the autocorrelation determined experimentally. To obtain the theoretical autocorrelation, the stationary discharge is described by a stationary random point process of independent intervals equally distributed according to a gamma function, and the dynamic behaviour is described by a model defined in a previous paper. Comparison shows that the model predicts the experimental results. Finally, the power density spectrum is analysed and the relevance of the results to signal transmission by the retinal system is discussed.
