Populations of local direction-selective cells encode global motion patterns generated by self-motion. Data, Code and Model.

Directional tuning of the population of local motion detectors T4/T5 in the visual system of the fruit fly <em>Drosophila melanogaster</em>. Direction tuning and receptive field location was measured by recording responses to visual stimuli containing dark or bright edges/stripes moving into 8 directions. All provided MATLAB scripts were used to analyze and illustrate data show in the manuscript 'Populations of local direction-selective cells encode global motion patterns generated by self-motion.' All data were obtained using <em>in vivo </em>two photon microscopy. Image time series were preprocessed using SIMA python software for motion alignment and further processed using custom written matlab or python code. Please find all relevant information to use the code in the README file.
