Visual discrimination of local surface structure: Slant, tilt, and curvedness
In four experiments, observers were required to discriminate interval or ordinal differences in slant, tilt, or curvedness between designated probe points on randomly shaped curved surfaces defined by shading, texture, and binocular disparity. The results reveal that discrimination thresholds for judgments of slant or tilt typically range between 4 degrees and 10 degrees; that judgments of one ...
متن کاملTilt dependency of slant aftereffect
Slant aftereffect (SAE), the negative aftereffect of slant induced after prolonged observation of a surface, is considered as evidence that slant is encoded in the visual system. Because slant and tilt are mathematically independent dimensions, Stevens (Stevens, K. A. (1983a). Biological Cybernetics, 46, 183-195) assumed that slant and tilt are processed independently in the visual system. To c...
متن کاملThe contributions of slant and tilt to the detection of local surface orientation in structure from motion
The contribution of slant and tilt to the detection of differences in local surface orientation was examined for structure-from-motion (SFM) displays of a complex sinusoidal surface. Observers judged whether an elliptical SFM gauge figure appeared to be lying on the surface or intersecting it. The gauge figure orientation either matched the local surface orientation or differed from it in slant...
متن کاملCategories and causality: the neglected direction.
The standard approach guiding research on the relationship between categories and causality views categories as reflecting causal relations in the world. We provide evidence that the opposite direction also holds: categories that have been acquired in previous learning contexts may influence subsequent causal learning. In three experiments we show that identical causal learning input yields dif...
متن کاملCommon mechanisms for 2D tilt and 3D slant after-effects
By presenting oriented Gabor patches either monocularly or binocularly, we dissociated retinal orientation from perceived tilt and perceived slant. After adapting to binocular patches, with zero apparent tilt and non-zero slant, small tilt after-effects (TAEs) and large slant after-effects (SAE) were measured. Adapting to monocular patches with non-zero tilt and zero slant produced large TAEs a...
