Redundancy of the retinal code.

<p><b>A, B:</b> Information rate obtained when decoding with different subsets of ganglion cells (dots) plotted against the number of cells (A) or the sum of the individual information rate of each cell of the subset (B); color scale indicates the number of cells in a subset. <b>C, D:</b> Plots analogous to panels A, B but for the guinea pig retina. <b>E, F:</b> Information rate for the best (blue) and worst (red) subsets of salamander ganglion cells (see text) plotted against the number of cells (E) or the sum of the individual information rate of each cell of the subset (F).
