Understanding the primates? visual system has been one of the challenging problems of different groups of scientists for years. Though many studies, from physiology and euroscience to computer vision, are done on different aspects of visual processing in the cortex, a comprehensive
computational model of visual cortex is still missing. We have implemented a computational model of object recognition in ventral visual pathway in our previous work. This hierarchical model covers visual areas V1/V2, V4/PIT, and AIT sending inputs to the Prefrontal Cortex (PFC) for categorization. To extend our model, in this work, we have added a simple model of motion detection in neurons of areas V1 and MT of the dorsal stream to our previous model. This has enabled the model to perform another principal function of the visual cortex, i.e., motion perception.
