Stereopsis from contrast envelopes
We report two experiments concerning the site of the principal nonlinearity in second-order stereopsis. The first exploits the asymmetry in perceiving transparency with second-order stimuli found by Langley et al. (1998) (Proceedings of the Royal Society of London B, 265, 1837-1845) i.e. the product of a positive-valued contrast envelope and a mean-zero carrier grating can be seen transparently...
متن کاملNeural basis for stereopsis from second-order contrast cues.
Humans and animals use visual cues such as brightness and color boundaries to identify objects and navigate through environments. However, even when these cues are not available, we can effortlessly perform these tasks by using second-order cues such as contrast variation (envelope) of patterns on surfaces. Previously, numerous psychophysical studies examined properties of binocular depth proce...
متن کاملContrast masking reveals spatial-frequency channels in stereopsis.
Yang and Blake (1991 Vision Research 31 1177-1189) investigated depth detection in stereograms containing spatially narrow-band signal and noise energies. The resulting masking functions led them to conclude that stereo vision was subserved by only two channels peaking at 3 and 5 cycles deg-1. Glennerster and Parker (1997 Vision Research 37 2143-2152) re-analysed these data, taking into account...
متن کاملA contrast paradox in stereopsis, motion detection, and vernier acuity
Stereoacuity improves with increasing contrast, unless the increase is monocular. In this case performance paradoxically suffers. This study examined whether this contrast paradox occurs for two other classes of visual judgment: two-frame motion and vernier acuity. We constructed three homologous tasks in which the two components of a gabor stimulus (stereo half-images, motion frames, vernier c...
متن کاملSpatial-frequency and contrast tuning of the transient-stereopsis system
The tuning of the transient-stereopsis system to luminance contrast and spatial-frequency (SF) was investigated with narrow-band gabor targets with a constant sigma of 1 degree. They were presented for brief (140 ms) durations and subtended a large (6 degrees) disparity. When dichoptic gabor stimuli were matched in SF (0-5 cpd), transient stereo performance was either uniform across SF or great...
