Centrifugal bias for second-order but not first-order motion.

چکیده
Limited-lifetime Gabor stimuli were used to assess both first- and second-order motion in peripheral vision. Both first- and second-order motion mechanisms were present at a 20-deg eccentricity. Second-order motion, unlike first-order, exhibits a bias for centrifugal motion, suggesting a role for the second-order mechanism in optic flow processing.

Second-order optic flow processing
Optic flow-large-field rotational and radial motion-is processed as efficiently as translational motion for first-order (luminance-defined) stimuli. However, it has been suggested recently that the same pattern does not hold for second-order (e.g. contrast-defined) stimuli. We used random dot kinematogram (RDK) stimuli to determine whether global processing of optic flow is as efficient as proc...
متن کاملAttentional modulation of threshold sensitivity to first-order motion and second-order motion patterns
Previous studies [e.g. Vision Research 40 (2000) 173] have shown that when observers are required to selectively attend to one of two, spatially-adjacent patches containing either first-order (luminance-defined) or second-order (contrast-defined) motion, threshold sensitivity for identifying the direction of second-order motion, but not first-order motion, is enhanced for the attended stimuli. ...
متن کاملA role for contrast-normalisation in second-order motion perception
Two low-level motion models are applied to a second-order stimulus, a translating contrast modulation of static binary noise. Both models have been used to demonstrate equivalence between energy and gradient algorithms and can be split into a motion-opponent stage followed by a contrast-normalised stage. Analysis of results shows no directional bias at the motion-opponent stage but a strong bia...
متن کاملSpatial pooling of one-dimensional second-order motion signals.
We can detect visual movements not only from luminance motion signals (first-order motion) but also from non-luminance motion signals (second-order motion). It has been established for first-order motions that the visual system pools local one-dimensional motion signals across space and orientation to solve the aperture problem and to estimate two-dimensional object motion. In this study, we in...
متن کاملIncreasing stimulus size impairs first- but not second-order motion perception.
As stimulus size increases, the direction of high-contrast moving stimuli becomes increasingly difficult to perceive. This counterintuitive effect, termed spatial suppression, is believed to reflect antagonistic center-surround interactions--mechanisms that play key roles in tasks requiring sensitivity to relative motion. It is unknown, however, whether second-order motion also exhibits spatial...
