Contrast Enhancement at Borders Spatial Contrast Enhancement at Borders
meanings, we use context to select the meaning intended by the speaker. But context is involved at an even earlier level in speech perception because it allows us to recognize sounds as words. We perceive spoken words as a sequence of vowel and consonant sounds, that is, as a sequence of phonemes. Perceptually, each phoneme seems fixed, but acoustically, a phoneme can vary considerably dependin...
متن کاملA Quantitative Investigation on the Effect of Edge Enhancement for Improving Visual Acuity at Different Levels of Contrast
Background: The major limitation in human vision is refractive error. Auxiliary equipment and methods for these people are not always available. In addition, limited range of accommodation in adult people when switching from a far point to a near point is not simply possible. In this paper, we are looking for solutions to use the facilities of digital image processing and displaying to improve ...
متن کاملContrast sensitivity at high velocities.
Measurements were made of the contrast required to see the direction of motion of drifting gratings (Part 1) and of moving bars (Part 2). The spatial frequency at which least contrast is required to see sinusoidal gratings decreases as their velocity increases, but peak sensitivity is identical at all velocities up to 800 deg/sec. Similarly, the wider a single bar, the higher the velocity at wh...
متن کاملCross-modal attention enhances perceived contrast.
Visual Attention Each time we open our eyes, we are confronted with an overwhelming amount of information. How is it possible, then, that we still have a strong impression that we understand what we see? Visual attention is the mechanism that turns looking into seeing, allowing us to select a certain location or aspect of a busy visual scene, and prioritize its processing. Such selection is nec...
متن کاملPerceptual enhancement of contrast by attention.
Allocating spatial attention to a visual stimulus or increasing stimulus contrast both enhance neuronal responses. In a recent study Carrasco et al. demonstrated that attention itself changes perceived contrast. Using an elegant experimental manipulation, they showed that the contrast of an attended stimulus was perceived to be higher than when the same stimulus was unattended. This provides ev...
