Contrast sensitivity, healthy aging and noise
At least three studies have used external noise paradigms to investigate the cause of contrast sensitivity losses due to healthy aging. These studies have used noise that was spatiotemporally localized on the target. Yet, Allard and Cavanagh (2011) have recently shown that the processing strategy can change with localized noise thereby violating the noise-invariant processing assumption and com...
متن کاملFactors limiting contrast sensitivity in experimentally amblyopic macaque monkeys
Contrast detection is impaired in amblyopes. To understand the contrast processing deficit in amblyopia, we studied the effects of masking noise on contrast threshold in amblyopic macaque monkeys. Amblyopia developed as a result of either experimentally induced strabismus or anisometropia. We used random spatiotemporal broadband noise of varying contrast power to mask the detection of sinusoida...
متن کاملSpatial contrast sensitivity in dynamic and static additive luminance noise
The purpose of this study was to define the quantitative relationship between the temporal characteristics of additive luminance noise and the properties of the spatial contrast sensitivity function (CSF). CSFs were obtained from two observers using Gabor patch targets of short duration that were added to white luminance noise with a range of root-mean-square contrasts (c(rms)). The noise was e...
متن کاملGain, noise, and contrast sensitivity of linear visual neurons.
Contrast sensitivity is a measure of the ability of an observer to detect contrast signals of particular spatial and temporal frequencies. A formal definition of contrast sensitivity that can be applied to individual linear visual neurons is derived. A neuron is modeled by a contrast transfer function and its modulus, contrast gain, and by a noise power spectrum. The distributions of neural res...
متن کاملContrast sensitivity in amblyopia: masking effects of noise.
Contrast sensitivities were determined for sinusoidal gratings of varying spatial frequencies with and without the presence of a random noise pattern superimposed on the gratings. Control subjects with normal binocular vision and observers with amblyopia were tested to determine the relative effects of noise on contrast sensitivity. For both amblyopes and normal subjects, contrast sensitivities...
