Inferotemporal cortex multiplexes behaviorally-relevant target match signals and visual representations in a manner that minimizes their interference

The IT FLD linear decoder axis reflects behavioral confusions.
Linear decoder performance, applied to the simultaneously recorded data for each session, after training on correct trials and cross-validating on pairs of correct and error trials matched for condition. Error bars (SEM) reflect the variability that can be attributed to the random selection of units (for populations smaller than the full dataset) and the random assignment of training and testing trials in cross-validation. Results are shown for the data pooled across all sessions (main plot, n = 20 sessions) as well as when the sessions are parsed by those collected from each animal (monkey 1, n = 10 sessions; monkey 2, n = 10 sessions).
