Highlights V4 population decoding with history in primates; leaves open any human clinical translation or cardiovascular relevance.
Integrating information across neuronal populations and including decision history significantly improves the ability to predict perceptual decisions from cortical responses.
Zaltzman et al. (1981) studied this question. Simultaneous measurement of neuronal activity in V1 and V4 visual cortex was evaluated on Prediction of perceptual decisions based on neuronal population responses and choice/reward histories. Neuronal population responses in V4, but not V1, combined with choice and reward history, robustly predicted perceptual decisions in macaque monkeys.
