Critical band masking in optic flow.
Visual processing has been widely investigated with narrow band stimuli at low contrasts. We used a masking paradigm to examine how visual sensitivity under these conditions compares with the perception of the direction of heading in real scenes (i.e., with dynamic natural images at high contrasts). We first confirmed and extended previous studies showing biases in the amplitude distribution fo...
متن کاملFace processing in different brain areas, and critical band masking.
Neurophysiological evidence is described showing that some neurons in the macaque inferior temporal visual cortex have responses that are invariant with respect to the position, size, view, and spatial frequency of faces and objects, and that these neurons show rapid processing and rapid learning. Critical band spatial frequency masking is shown to be a property of these face-selective neurons ...
متن کاملCritical band masking reveals the effects of optical distortions on the channel mediating letter identification
There is evidence that letter identification is mediated by only a narrow band of spatial frequencies and that the center frequency of the neural channel thought to underlie this selectivity is related to the size of the letters. When letters are spatially filtered (at a fixed size) the channel tuning characteristics change according to the properties of the spatial filter (Majaj et al., 2002)....
متن کاملTesting the horizontal-vertical stereo anisotropy with the critical-band masking paradigm.
Stereo vision has a well-known anisotropy: At low frequencies, horizontally oriented sinusoidal depth corrugations are easier to detect than vertically oriented corrugations (both defined by horizontal disparities). Previously, Serrano-Pedraza and Read (2010) suggested that this stereo anisotropy may arise because the stereo system uses multiple spatial-frequency disparity channels for detectin...
متن کاملNonadditivity of masking by narrow-band noises.
Characterization of the visual system as a linear system has many consequences. One property implied by such a characterization is that signal-to-noise ratio at threshold is constant, so that the contrast energy of a sinusoidal grating at threshold depends on the effective noise passed by the filter used to detect the target. When the contrast energy in an external noise is sufficiently high, t...
