Freiwald Tsao FaceViews AM

The Freiwald Tsao Face Views AM dataset was collected by Winrich Freiwald (Rockefeller University) and Doris Tsao (UC Berkeley), and was originally published in Freiwald and Taso (2010) . The data consists of single unit recordings from anterior medial face patch (AM) while monkeys passively viewed images of 25 individuals from 8 different head orientations. A decoding analysis of this data was published in Meyers et al (2015).
