Post-retinal processing of background luminance
It is generally thought that mean luminance and low spatial frequency information in a visual image are sharply attenuated at the retina, due to processes of light adaptation and the spatial filtering effects of lateral inhibition. Our results from interocular luminance masking suggest, however, that cortical masking effects play a primary role in the attenuation of low frequency sensitivity. R...
متن کاملPost Processing Pedestrian Detection with Background Cues
In this project, I develop an approach to post process local pedestrian detection by incorporating cues from the background. This approach uses a combination of several location specific color classifiers to quickly reduce the number of the local detector responses by discarding improbable results. An experimental method for color comparison is explored in this project to supplement existing te...
متن کامل3D shape-contingent processing of luminance gratings
Studies on binocular contrast sensitivity have predominantly focused on flat, two-dimensional (2D) gratings. The underlying hypothesis of such studies is that contrast sensitivity is determined at the early stages of visual processing and is not influenced by the process of three-dimensional (3D) shape recovery. However, it can be argued that contrast detection involves identifying changes in a...
متن کاملThe effect of background luminance on cone sensitivity functions.
Implementations of the Wald-Marré technique have employed fixed luminance backgrounds to isolate cone sensitivity mechanisms. We evaluated the effect of varying the adaptation level on the relative isolation of the different cone types. For MWS and LWS cone isolation we used a 15 Hz flickering test light to isolate the achromatic channel, and we modelled the resulting spectral sensitivity funct...
متن کاملInterocular correlation, luminance contrast and cyclopean processing.
We have investigated the nature and viability of interocular correlation as a measure of signal strength in the cyclopean domain. Thresholds for the detection of interocular correlation in dynamic random element stereograms were measured as a function of luminance contrast, a more traditional measure of stimulus strength. At high contrasts, correlation thresholds were independent of contrast. A...
