Channel selection with non-white-noise masks.
نویسنده
چکیده
It is frequently assumed that the accuracy with which luminance gratings can be detected depends solely on the signal-to-noise ratio at the output of a single linear channel. Proportionality between threshold elevation and power spectral density is implicit in this assumption. I demonstrate that this proportionality does not hold for 1-cycle/degree gratings masked by low-pass noise with a 0.5-cycle/degree cutoff frequency. This implies that different channels can mediate detection, depending on the contrast of masking stimuli.

A Novel Noise-Robust Texture Classification Method Using Joint Multiscale LBP
In this paper we describe a novel noise-robust texture classification method using joint multiscale local binary pattern. The first step in texture classification is to describe the texture by extracting different features. So far, several methods have been developed for this topic, one of the most popular ones is Local Binary Pattern (LBP) method and its variants such as Completed Local Binary...
متن کاملCapacity Bounds and High-SNR Capacity of the Additive Exponential Noise Channel With Additive Exponential Interference
Communication in the presence of a priori known interference at the encoder has gained great interest because of its many practical applications. In this paper, additive exponential noise channel with additive exponential interference (AENC-AEI) known non-causally at the transmitter is introduced as a new variant of such communication scenarios. First, it is shown that the additive Gaussian ch...
متن کاملBroadband noise masks suppress neural responses to narrowband stimuli
White pixel noise is widely used to estimate the level of internal noise in a system by injecting external variance into the detecting mechanism. Recent work (Baker and Meese, 2012) has provided psychophysical evidence that such noise masks might also cause suppression that could invalidate estimates of internal noise. Here we measure neural population responses directly, using steady-state vis...
متن کاملRegularization Parameter Selection Method for Sign LMS with Reweighted L1-Norm Constriant Algorithm
Broadband frequency-selective fading channels usually have the sparsity nature. By exploiting the sparsity, adaptive sparse channel estimation (ASCE) algorithms, e.g., least mean square with reweighted L1-norm constraint (LMS-RL1) algorithm, could bring a considerable performance gain under assumption of additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN). In practical scenario of wireless systems, however, c...
متن کاملEvidence for two interacting temporal channels in human visual processing
Previous studies have generally estimated that two independent channels underlie human temporal vision: one broad and low-pass, the other high, and band-pass. We confirm this with iso-oriented targets and masks. With orthogonal masks, the same high-frequency channel emerges but no low-pass channel is observed, indicating the high-frequency channel is orientation invariant, and possibly pre-cort...
