Spatial summation of face information
Do all parts of the face contribute equally to face detection or are some parts more detectable than others? To evaluate this issue, we studied detection of the presence of normalized frontal-face images within aperture windows of varying extent. We performed a face summation study using two-alternative forced-choice psychophysics. The face stimuli were scaled to equal eye-to-chin distance, cen...
متن کاملConfigural face encoding and spatial frequency information.
Configural relations and a critical band of spatial frequencies (SFs) in the middle range are particularly important for face recognition. We report the results of four experiments in which the relationship between these two types of information was examined. In Experiments 1, 2A, and 2B, the face inversion effect (FIE) was used to probe configural face encoding. Recognition of upright and inve...
متن کاملUtilisation of spatial frequency information in face search
In previous studies the utilisation of spatial frequency information in face perception has been investigated by using static recognition tasks. In this study we used a visual search task, which requires eye movements and fast identification of previously learned facial photographs. Using Fourier phase randomisation, spatial information was selectively removed without changing the amplitude spe...
متن کاملSpatial summation of peripheral Gabor patches.
Previous studies have specified the foveal pattern that is seen most efficiently, with the assumption that the waveform of the best pattern matches the impulse response of the most sensitive visual filter. We measured the threshold contrast for circular, collinear, and orthogonal Gabor stimuli of 6 Hz temporal frequency presented 7 deg above the fixation point. We found that the threshold contr...
متن کاملCompressive spatial summation in human visual cortex.
Neurons within a small (a few cubic millimeters) region of visual cortex respond to stimuli within a restricted region of the visual field. Previous studies have characterized the population response of such neurons using a model that sums contrast linearly across the visual field. In this study, we tested linear spatial summation of population responses using blood oxygenation level-dependent ...
