Subtractive and divisive adaptation in visual motion computations
Models of visual motion processing that introduce priors for low speed through Bayesian computations are sometimes treated with scepticism by empirical researchers because of the convenient way in which parameters of the Bayesian priors have been chosen. Using the effects of motion adaptation on motion perception to illustrate, we show that the Bayesian prior, far from being convenient, may be ...
متن کاملEvidence for a subtractive component in motion adaptation
Adaptation to a moving stimulus changes the perception of a stationary grating and also reduces contrast sensitivity to the adaptor. We determined whether the first effect could be predicted from the second. The contrast discrimination (T vs. C) function for a drifting 7.5 Hz grating test stimulus was determined when observers were adapted to a low contrast (0.075) grating of the same spatial a...
متن کاملDivisive and Subtractive Mask Effects: Linking Psychophysics and Biophysics
We describe an analogy between psychophysically measured effects in contrast masking, and the behavior of a simple integrate-andfire neuron that receives time-modulated inhibition. In the psychophysical experiments, we tested observers ability to discriminate contrasts of peripheral Gabor patches in the presence of collinear Gabor flankers. The data reveal a complex interaction pattern that we ...
متن کاملParallel Computations in Insect and Mammalian Visual Motion Processing
Sensory systems use receptors to extract information from the environment and neural circuits to perform subsequent computations. These computations may be described as algorithms composed of sequential mathematical operations. Comparing these operations across taxa reveals how different neural circuits have evolved to solve the same problem, even when using different mechanisms to implement th...
متن کاملAttentive Visual Motion Processing: Computations in the Log-Polar Plane
Attentive vision is characterized by selective sensing in space and time as well as selective processing with respect to a speci c task. Selection in space involves the splitting of the visual eld in a high resolution area the fovea and a space-variant resolution area the periphery. Both in neurobiology and in robot vision, models of the resolution decrease towards the image boundaries have bee...
