A Computational Model of Afterimages
نویسندگان
چکیده
Afterimages are optical illusions, particularly well perceived when fixating an image for an extended period of time and then looking at a neutral background, where an inverted copy of the original stimulus appears. The full mechanism that produces the perceived specific colors and shapes is complex and not entirely understood, but most of the important attributes can be well explained by bleaching of retinal photoreceptors (retinal kinetics). We propose a model to compute afterimages that allows us to simulate their temporal, color and time-frequency behavior. Using this model, high dynamic range (HDR) content can be processed to add realistic afterimages to low dynamic range (LDR) media. Hereby, our approach helps in conveying the original source’s luminance and contrast. It can be applied in real-time on full-HD HDR content using standard graphics hardware. Finally, our approach is validated in a perceptual study.

A Computational Model of Afterimages based on Simultaneous and Successive Contrasts
Negative afterimage appears in our vision when we shift our gaze from an over stimulated original image to a new area with a uniform color. The colors of negative afterimages differ from the old stimulating colors in the original image when the color in the new area is either neutral or chromatic. The interaction between stimulating colors in the test and inducing field in the original image ch...
متن کاملAttentional effects on afterimages: Theory and data
We explore attentional effects on afterimages in the framework of the FACADE model of visual perception. We first show that the FACADE model can account for the experimental findings of Suzuki and Grabowecky [Suzuki, S., & Grabowecky, M. (2003). Attention during adaptation weakens negative afterimages. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance 29, 793-807] that afteri...
متن کاملCortical dynamics of boundary segmentation and reset: persistence, afterimages, and residual traces.
In previous work with a neural-network model of boundary segmentation and reset, the percept of persistence was linked to the duration of a boundary segmentation after stimulus offset. In particular, the model simulated the decrease of persistence duration with an increase in stimulus duration and luminance. Further evidence is revealed for the neural mechanisms involved in the theory. Simulati...
متن کاملMeasuring palinopsia: Characteristics of a persevering visual sensation from cerebral pathology
Palinopsia is an abnormal perseverative visual phenomenon, whose relation to normal afterimages is unknown. We measured palinoptic positive visual afterimages in a patient with a cerebral lesion. Positive afterimages were confined to the left inferior quadrant, which allowed a comparison between afterimages in the intact and the affected part of his visual field. Results showed that negative af...
متن کاملInteractions of afterimages for orientation and color: experimental data and model simulations.
Sequential viewing of two orthogonally related patterns produces an afterimage of the first pattern. We report an experiment that quantifies some properties of this type of afterimage. It is shown that it is important for the two patterns to have orthogonal orientations and that the appearance of the afterimage does not depend on the spatial frequency of the second pattern. We then show that Gr...
