Illusory contours
Illusory contours are perceived in the absence of any real physical luminance gradients between inducers that are spatially discontinuous (Fig. 1a,b).1–3 It has been controversial whether the perception of these subjective contours arise from higher level cognitive mechanisms that depend on attention and serial search4–6 or from lower level parallel processing in the early automatic, preattenti...
متن کاملHow visual illusions illuminate complementary brain processes: illusory depth from brightness and apparent motion of illusory contours
Neural models of perception clarify how visual illusions arise from adaptive neural processes. Illusions also provide important insights into how adaptive neural processes work. This article focuses on two illusions that illustrate a fundamental property of global brain organization; namely, that advanced brains are organized into parallel cortical processing streams with computationally comple...
متن کاملMeasurements of geometric illusions, illusory contours and stereo-depth at luminance and colour contrast
We investigated four geometric optical illusions (Zöllner, Müller-Lyer, Ponzo and Delboeuf), plus illusory contour/border induction (Kanizsa) and depth in random-dot stereograms (Julesz). Two different display conditions were compared: equiluminance with chromaticity contrast and heteroluminance without chromaticity contrast. The main results are as follows. (1) The strength of the four geometr...
متن کاملCurvature coding in illusory contours
We have employed the shape frequency and shape-amplitude after-effects (SFAE and SAAE) to investigate: (i) whether the shapes of illusory and real curves are processed by the same or different mechanisms, and (ii) the carrier-tuning properties of illusory curvature mechanisms. The SFAE and SAAE are the phenomena in which adaptation to a sinusoidal-shaped contour results in a shift in, respectiv...
متن کاملSubthreshold summation with illusory contours
Results from three experiments using spatial forced-choice techniques show that an illusory contour improves the detectability of a spatially superimposed, thin subthreshold line of either contrast polarity. Furthermore, the subthreshold line is found to enhance the visibility of the illusory contour. Stimuli which do not induce illusory contours, but reduce uncertainty about the spatial positi...
