Contextual effects on perceived three-dimensional shape
Binocular disparity is a powerful cue for the perception of depth. The accuracy with which observers can judge depth from disparity can, however, be very poor. This has been attributed to difficulties associated with the scaling of disparity to take account of distance (Johnston, 1991). We test potential strategies that could be used to improve this scaling. Using the depth-to-width ratio task ...
متن کاملPerceived three-dimensional shape toggles perceived glow
Most surfaces reflect light from external sources, but others emit light: they glow. Glowing surfaces are often a sign of an important feature of the environment, such as a heat source or a bioluminescent life form, but we know little about how the human visual system identifies them. Previous work has shown that luminance and luminance gradients are important in glow perception [1,2]. While a ...
متن کاملDynamics of contextual modulation of perceived shape in human vision
In biological vision, contextual modulation refers to the influence of a surround pattern on either the perception of, or the neural responses to, a target pattern. One studied form of contextual modulation deals with the effect of a surround texture on the perceived shape of a contour, in the context of the phenomenon known as the shape aftereffect. In the shape aftereffect, prolonged viewing,...
متن کاملStochastic re-calibration: contextual effects on perceived tilt.
The human visual system exaggerates the difference between the tilts of adjacent lines or grating patches. In addition to this tilt illusion, we found that oblique flanks reduced acuity for small changes of tilt in the centre of the visual field. However, no flanks--regardless of their tilts--decreased sensitivity to contrast. Thus, the foveal tilt illusion should not be attributed to orientati...
متن کاملThree - Dimensional Shape Description Using
Blum's transform, variously known as the symmetric axis transform, medial axis transform, or skeleton, and his associated two-dimensional shape description methodology are generalized to three-dimensions. Bookstein's twodimensional algorithm for finding an approximation to the symmetric axis is also generalized. The symmetric axis (SA) of an object with a smooth boundary is the locus of points ...
