Context-dependent lightness affects perceived contrast
Perceived contrast of a grating varies with its background (or mean) luminance: of the two gratings with the same photometric contrast the one on higher luminance background appears to have higher contrast. Does perceived contrast also vary with context-dependent background lightness even when the luminance remains constant? We investigated this question using a stimulus in which two equilumina...
متن کاملContext affects lightness at the level of surfaces.
Visual perception of object attributes such as surface lightness is crucial for successful interaction with the environment. How the visual system assigns lightness to image regions is not yet understood. It has been shown that the context in which a surface is embedded influences its perceived lightness, but whether that influence involves predominantly low-, mid-, or high-level visual mechani...
متن کاملParadoxical lightness contrast
The visual system's computation of lightness (perceived reflectance) leads to contrast effects in which a gray target region appears lighter on a black background than on a white one. Here we show a paradoxical contrast effect in which targets look lighter after adding regions that increase the scene's average luminance, and darker after adding regions that decrease this luminance. The paradoxi...
متن کاملPerceived Lightness Depends on Perceived Spatial
A change in the perceived spatial position of a surface can change its perceived color from black to white or from white to black. This Anding challenges the widespread view that denies any substantial role of depth perception in the perception of surface lightness (the shade of gray between white and black). Since 1948, when Hans Wallach published his classic experiments in lightness constancy...
متن کاملAn explanation of why component contrast affects perceived pattern motion
Component contrast is an essential element in computing spatio-temporal motion energy, and has been shown to bias perceived motion (Thompson, 1982). More recently, Champion, Hammett, and Thompson (2007) concluded that two-dimensional features in the stimulus was the explanation for this motion bias. Here a method was used that eliminated two-dimensional features as the source of the bias. Bowns...
