Comparative neurophysiology of spatial luminance contrast sensitivity
The luminance contrast sensitivity function has been investigated using behavioral and electrophysiological methods in many vertebrate species. Some features are conserved across species as a shape of the function, but other features, such as the contrast sensitivity peak value, spatial frequency contrast sensitivity peak, and visual acuity have changed. Here, we review contrast sensitivity acr...
متن کاملSpatial contrast sensitivity in dynamic and static additive luminance noise
The purpose of this study was to define the quantitative relationship between the temporal characteristics of additive luminance noise and the properties of the spatial contrast sensitivity function (CSF). CSFs were obtained from two observers using Gabor patch targets of short duration that were added to white luminance noise with a range of root-mean-square contrasts (c(rms)). The noise was e...
متن کاملLuminance spatial scale and local stereo-sensitivity
Using filtered, broad band, fractal noise images we measured the dependence of D(min) and D(max) for stereo on luminance spatial frequency. D(min) was found to exhibit a simple dependence on the highest spatial frequency contained in the stimulus. D(max) depended on both image size and spatial frequency in a way that suggests an informational limit. Different rules govern D(min) and D(max) even...
متن کاملModelling spatial contrast sensitivity functions for chromatic and luminance-modulated gratings
We extended our detection model of achromatic spatial vision (Rovamo, J., Mustonen, J., & Näsänen, R. (1994a). Modelling contrast sensitivity as a function of retinal illuminance and grating area. Vision Research, 34, 1301-1314) to colour vision by taking into account the fact that due to the spatio-chromatic opponency of retinal ganglion cells and dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) neuro...
متن کاملEffects of mean luminance on goldfish temporal contrast sensitivity
The goldfish is an important animal model for retinal processing and for understanding the relationship between retinal structure and function. The purpose of this study was to examine the temporal processing of the visual system of this species. Goldfish were classically conditioned to suppress respiration upon presentation of a sinusoidally flickering stimulus. Temporal contrast sensitivity f...
