摘要：

Cells in area TE of the inferotemporal cortex of the monkey brain selectively respond to various moderately complex object features, and those that respond to similar features cluster in a columnar region elongated vertical to the cortical surface. Columns representing related but different features partially overlap, and at least in same cases they comprise a continuous map of a piece of complex feature space. This continuous mapping is likely used for various computations, such as production of the image of the object al different viewing angles, illumination conditions, and articulation poses.
