Stochastic, Adaptive Sampling of Information by Microvilli in Fly Photoreceptors
BACKGROUND: In fly photoreceptors, light is focused onto a photosensitive waveguide, the rhabdomere, consisting of tens of thousands of microvilli. Each microvillus is capable of generating elementary responses, quantum bumps, in response to single photons using a stochastically operating phototrans...
