Abstract
A Laguerre domain approach to the identification of the so-called ElementaryMotion Detector (EMD) that is hypothesized to constitute the basis of biological motion vision in nearly all animals is proposed. Despite the vast popularity of the EMD concept in both biology and biologically inspired computer vision, the problem of estimating the dynamics of the EMD from experimental data has been poorly addressed. The choice of the Laguerre domain for the representation of the input and the output of the EMD is motivated by the pulse-modulated character of the visual stimuli produced by the CRT displays that are often used in animal experiments. An analytical expression for the Laguerre spectrum of the EMD output given the Laguerre spectrum of the input is derived and a parameter estimation algorithm of the system dynamics is developed. The feasibility of the approach is illustrated by simulation using actual visual stimuli from fly electrophysiology.
