    Abstract

    In this paper two types of ganglion cells in the visual system of mammals (monkey) are modeled. A high contrast sensitive type, the so called M-cells, which project to the two magno-cellular layers of the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) and a low sensitive type, the P-cells, which project to the four parvo-cellular layers of the LGN. The results will be compared with the ganglion cells as described by Kuffler.
