Critical Learning Periods in Deep Neural Networks (2017, background): “Similarly, both in humans and animal models, the effects of binocular cataracts have been characterized as being, somewhat counter-intuitively, less severe than those reported in patients and animals suffering from monocular deficits (31, 32).”
Functional connectivity of visual cortex in the blind follows retinotopic organization principles (2015, background): “Ever since Hubel and Wiesel’s Nobel prize-winning work (Wiesel and Hubel, 1963, 1965) it has been clear that the maturation process and resulting characteristics of the core retinotopic areas of the human brain, in particular the pri- mary and early visual areas, are extremely sensitive to visual…”
Cortex: Statistics and Geometry of Neuronal Connectivity (1998, background): “Like some kinds of early learning described by animal ethologists ("imprinting"), and like the establishment of orientation sensitive feature detectors in the visual cortex (Wiesel and Hubel, 1965), the acquisition of the phonemic reper toi re actually used in the "mother tongue", which follows the ”
Early experience determines how the senses will interact. (2007, background): “This effect may be superimposed on many of those processes guiding the maturation of the properties and representations of the individual senses (Buonomano and Merzenich 1998; Feldman 2001; King et al. 2000; Li et al. 2006; Rauschecker 2002; Simons and Land 1987; Singer 1995; Wiesel and Hubel 1965).”
Single Units and Sensation: A Neuron Doctrine for Perceptual Psychology? (1972, background): “In later investigations (Wiesel and Hubel, 1963, 1965; Hubel and Wiesel, 1965) they found that abnormal visual experience, such as unilateral A neuron doctrine for perceptual psychology?”
Effects of early unilateral blur on the macaque's visual system. II. Anatomical observations (1987, background): “It appears that it is the prevention of form vision that is critical, since the effects follow abolition of patterned stimulation even when unaccompanied by a change in retinal illumination, but do not occur when retinal illumination alone is reduced (Wiesel and Hubel, 1965; Blakemore, 1976; von Noo”
