Spatial Frequency Maps in Human Visual Cortex: A Replication and Extension.

In a step toward developing a model of human primary visual cortex, a recent study introduced a model of spatial frequency tuning in V1 (Broderick, Simoncelli, & Winawer, 2022). The model is compact, using just 9 parameters to predict BOLD response amplitude for locations across all of V1 as a function of stimulus orientation and spatial frequency. Here we replicated this analysis in a new dataset, the 'nsdsynthetic' supplement to the Natural Scenes Dataset (Allen et al.
