Binocular contrast discrimination needs monocular multiplicative noise
The effects of signal and noise on contrast discrimination are difficult to separate because of a singularity in the signal-detection-theory model of two-alternative forced-choice contrast discrimination (Katkov, Tsodyks, & Sagi, 2006). In this article, we show that it is possible to eliminate the singularity by combining that model with a binocular combination model to fit monocular, dichoptic...
متن کاملSeparating transducer non-linearities and multiplicative noise in contrast discrimination
It has been difficult to isolate the factors that limit contrast discrimination, one of the most fundamental aspects of the visual system. claim to have found a method that can answer the question of why discrimination thresholds increase with reference contrast. Is it because of a saturating contrast response function or because of increasing (multiplicative) noise? Based on four datasets they...
متن کاملThe separation of monocular and binocular contrast
The contrast asynchrony is a stimulus configuration that illustrates the visual system's separable responses to luminance and luminance contrast information (Shapiro, 2008; Shapiro et al., 2004). When two disks, whose luminances modulate in phase with each other, are each surrounded by a disk, one light and one dark, observers can see both the in-phase brightness signals and the antiphase contr...
متن کاملThe effects of flankers on contrast detection and discrimination in binocular, monocular, and dichoptic presentations.
We investigated how two co-aligned adjacent stimuli (flankers) influence threshold versus pedestal contrast (TvC) functions in binocular, monocular, and dichoptic presentations. Targets were presented to the two eyes or to only one eye. Pedestals and flankers were presented to the same eye to which the target was presented (binocular or monocular presentations) or to the other eye (dichoptic pr...
متن کاملDirection discrimination thresholds in binocular, monocular, and dichoptic viewing: Motion opponency and contrast gain control.
We studied the binocular organization of motion opponency and its relationship to contrast gain control. Luminance contrast thresholds for discriminating direction of motion were measured for drifting Gabor patterns (target) presented on counterphase flickering Gabor patterns (pedestal). There were four presentation conditions: binocular, monocular, dichoptic, and half-binocular. For the half-b...
