AbstractThe diverse nature of visual environments demands that the retina, the first stage of the visual system, encodes a vast range of stimuli with various statistics. The retina adapts its computations to some specific features of the input, such as brightness, contrast or motion. However, it is less clear whether it also adapts to the statistics of natural scenes compared to white noise, the latter of which is often used to infer models of retinal computation.
