Hermite acuity gratings and models of space-variant acuity
A coherent mathematical framework for the psychophysics of contrast perception emerges when contrast sensitivity is posed as an eigenvalue problem. This more general mathematical theory is broad enough to encompass Fourier analysis as it is used in vision research. We present a model of space-variant contrast detection to illustrate the main features of the theory, and obtain a new contrast sen...
متن کاملEffect of window size on detection acuity and resolution acuity for sinusoidal gratings in central and peripheral vision.
Detection and resolution of square patches of sinusoidal gratings were measured in central and peripheral vision (30 degrees horizontal temporal visual field) for high-contrast gratings as a function of the number of cycles in the stimulus. We determined performance in a forced-choice paradigm for a fixed number of stimulus cycles by arranging for stimulus diameter to vary inversely with spatia...
متن کاملResolution Acuity is better than Vernier Acuity
Our impressive sensitivity to vernier offsets as compared to resolution acuity has long inspired vision researchers to study the phenomena in great detail. In this study we use the test-pedestal framework to compare resolution and vernier acuity. In these experiments the test stimulus is the same for both tasks, only the pedestals differ. When thresholds are expressed in common units of test st...
متن کاملVernier step acuity and bisection acuity for texture-defined form
Using as the stimulus a texture pattern of short lines, we compared positional acuity thresholds for an orientation-texture-defined (OTD) boundary and a luminance-defined (LD) boundary. Texture lines had different orientations but the same luminance on either side of the OTD boundary, and different luminances but the same orientation on either side of the LD boundary. For the LD boundary, both ...
متن کاملTactile Acuity Charts: A Reliable Measure of Spatial Acuity
For assessing tactile spatial resolution it has recently been recommended to use tactile acuity charts which follow the design principles of the Snellen letter charts for visual acuity and involve active touch. However, it is currently unknown whether acuity thresholds obtained with this newly developed psychophysical procedure are in accordance with established measures of tactile acuity that ...
