text: Statistics of natural scenes are not uniform - their structure varies dramatically
from ground to sky. It remains unknown whether these non-uniformities are reflected
in the large-scale organization of the early visual system and what benefits such
adaptations would confer. Here, by relying on the efficient coding hypothesis,
we predict that changes in the structure of receptive fields across visual space
increase the efficiency of sensory coding. We show experimentally that, in agreement
with our predictions, receptive fields of retinal ganglion cells change their
shape along the dorsoventral retinal axis, with a marked surround asymmetry at
the visual horizon. Our work demonstrates that, according to principles of efficient
coding, the panoramic structure of natural scenes is exploited by the retina across
space and cell-types.
