Attending to individual size modulates mean size computation

Mean Drop Size and Drop Size Distribution in a Hanson Mixer-Settler Extraction Column

An aftereffect of adaptation to mean size.

The visual system rapidly represents the mean size of sets of objects. Here, we investigated whether mean size is explicitly encoded by the visual system, along a single dimension like texture, numerosity, and other visual dimensions susceptible to adaptation. Observers adapted to two sets of dots with different mean sizes, presented simultaneously in opposite visual fields. After adaptation, t...

Mean Size of Wavelet Packets

We study the mean size of wavelet packets in Lp. An exact formula for the mean size is given in terms of the p-norm joint spectral radius. This will be a corollary of an asymptotic formula for the Lp-norms on the subdivision trees. Then the stability and Schauder basis property of wavelet packets in Lp, and the instability of biorthogonal wavelet packets in L2 are analyzed. AMS Subject Classifi...

Attention modulates visual size adaptation.

The current study determined in healthy subjects (n = 16) whether size adaptation occurs at early, i.e., preattentive, levels of processing or whether higher cognitive processes such as attention can modulate the illusion. To investigate this issue, bottom-up stimulation was kept constant across conditions by using a single adaptation display containing both small and large adapter stimuli. Sub...
