Imitation of Visual illusions via OpenCV and CNN

Visua l illusion is the fallacious percep ti on of rea lity or some ac t ua lly existi ng object. In t his paper , we imit at e the mechanism of Ehrenst ein illusion, neon color sp readi ng illnsion , wa te r­ color illusion, Kanizsa illusion, shifted edg es illusion , and hybrid image illusion using t he O pen Source Comput er Vision Library (OpenCV). We also im itate th ese illusions using Cellular Neu­ ral Networks (CNNs). T hese imitations suggest th at som e illusions are processed by high-level brain functions. We next ap ply the morphological gradient operation to ano ma lous motion illu­ sions. The proc essed images are classified into two kinds of images , which correspond to the central dri ft illusion and the peripher al drift illusion, respecti vely. It de monstrat es that the con­ trast of t he colors plays an important role in the anomalous motion illusion. We also imitate the anomalous motion illusions using bot h OpenCV an d CNN. T hese imitat ions suggest that som e visual illusions may be processed by t he illusory moveme nt of a nimat ions. into seeing. The study of illusory colors demon­ st rates t hat color processing in the brain occurs Human visual syst ems see somet hing that is not hand in hand with processing of ot her pro pe rties; present, or incorrectly see what is present.

Recently, great atten­ information gathered by th e eye is processed by tio n has been drawn to anomalous mo tion illusion t he brain to give a percept that does not tally wit h a physical measurement of t he stimulus [Kitaoka, 2007], which is char act er ized by illusory source. Visual illusion 1 is defined as the falla­ motion in a stationary image. In some ano ma­ cious percep tion of reali ty or some act ua lly exist­ lous motion illusions, color enhances t he illusion , ing objec t.
