Detecting low shape-frequencies in smooth and jagged contours
It is often assumed that a two-stage filter-process is involved in the coding of visual contours. In the first stage the contour is coded by localized luminance filters selective for, among other dimensions, orientation and spatial frequency. A second stage then integrates the outputs of these local luminance filters over space. In the experiments described here we address the issue of which sp...
متن کاملSpatial frequency masking with the sweep-VEP
A suprathreshold sinewave grating can change the amplitude of the steady-state visual evoked potential (VEP) in response to a test grating if the two are close in spatial frequency (SF). The change in amplitude provides clues to underlying pattern analyzers. Masking was measured in 12 observers using the steady-state VEP. As a test grating reversed at 7 Hz, a masker of similar temporal frequenc...
متن کاملSelective spatial attention modulates bottom-up informational masking of speech
To hear out a conversation against other talkers listeners overcome energetic and informational masking. Largely attributed to top-down processes, information masking has also been demonstrated using unintelligible speech and amplitude-modulated maskers suggesting bottom-up processes. We examined the role of speech-like amplitude modulations in information masking using a spatial masking releas...
متن کاملHigh Spatial Frequencies Are More Dynamic Than Low Spatial Frequencies In Cardiac Motion
Introduction Effective strategies for sparse sampling of kt-space are important for fast dynamic imaging. Following observations in early landmark papers [1-3] the temporal sampling rate of each k-space view is often linked to the signal energy represented by that view in k-space for a certain class of images, in general considering only the spatial or spatiotemporal spectrum of the entire imag...
متن کاملImage Segmentation with Active Contours based on Selective Visual Attention
Telemedicine is growing and there is an increased demand for faster image processing and transmitting diagnostic medical images. Identifying and extracting the region of interest (ROI) accurately is an important step before coding and compressing the image data for efficient transmission or storage. The usual approach to extract ROI is to apply contour segmentation method. Chan-Vese active cont...
