Global resistance to local perceptual adaptation in texture discrimination
Intensive training or testing reduces performance on perceptual tasks. These effects are specific to basic image features, implicating early stages of the visual stream rather than general fatigue. Recent results show that such adaptation-like performance decrements are practically eliminated following practice with a small number of trials and sleep. This long-term learning effect suggests a l...
متن کاملAdaptation to direction statistics modulates perceptual discrimination.
Perception depends on the relative activity of populations of sensory neurons with a range of tunings and response gains. Each neuron's tuning and gain are malleable and can be modified by sustained exposure to an adapting stimulus. Here, we used a combination of human psychophysical testing and models of neuronal population decoding to assess how rapid adaptation to moving stimuli might change...
متن کاملContrast amplification in global texture orientation discrimination.
We show that adding a low-contrast texture stimulus that is far below its own detection threshold to an ambiguously oriented high-contrast texture can produce an easily perceived global orientation. When such a low-contrast (e.g., 0.1%) test texture and a high-contrast (e.g., 2%) amplifier texture are interleaved, the effective strength for global orientation detection closely approximates the ...
متن کاملLocal and global contributions to shape discrimination
Humans are remarkably sensitive in detecting small deviations from circularity. In tasks involving discrimination between closed contours, either circular in shape or defined by sinusoidal modulations of the circle radius, human performance has been shown to be limited by global processing. We assessed the amount of global pooling for different pattern shapes (different radial modulation freque...
متن کاملTexture discrimination based on global feature alignments.
Three experiments are reported that examined the abilities of human observers to discriminate textures with identical distributions of orientation and spatial frequency. In Experiment 1, the stimuli consisted of low-pass filtered noise that was uniformly distributed and spatially isotropic. Observers were able to discriminate textures with identical image statistics when their frequencies were ...
