Dataset description

Response to flashed images from the Van Hateren dataset. All images are shown for 300 ms and preceded by 300 ms of grey (~3000 images). Some images are repeated and form the test set (30 images). The stimulus section of the dataset contains only the images themselves. The reported firing rates are summed over the entire image presentation (300 ms).

Unique characteristics

These data were collected to train and test two-layer CNN models of RGCs on flashed natural images. The models were then used to predict local spike-triggered averages (LSTAs) of the model cells. The dataset supports modelling responses to flashed natural images in two different species.
