These operations are independent of the level of general illumination and express the image in terms of: ( 1 ) local sharp edges and contrast; (2) the curvature of edge of a dark object; (3) the movement of edges; and (4) the local dimmings produced by movement or rapid general darkening.

Each group of fibers serving one operation maps the retina continuously in a single sheet of endings in the frog's brain. There are four such sheets in the brain, corresponding to the four operations, and their maps are in registration. When all axonal connections between eye and brain are broken and the fibers grow back, they reconstitute the original retinal maps and also arrange themselves...
