Phenomenal Regression to the Real Object

Phenomenal regression to the frontal and natural picture

The retinal image of a figure on a slanted picture is narrower than that of a figure on a frontal picture. In this study, the perceived width of various figures (horizontal line segments, ellipses, faces, symbolic faces, and artistic pictures) on a slanted picture plane was measured. The width of the figures was magnified or reduced in order to vary the naturalness of the original figures. The ...

Re3 : Real-Time Recurrent Regression Networks for Object Tracking

Robust object tracking requires knowledge and understanding of the object being tracked: its appearance, its motion, and how it changes over time. A tracker must be able to modify its underlying model and adapt to new observations. We present Re, a real-time deep object tracker capable of incorporating temporal information into its model. Rather than focusing on a limited set of objects or trai...

Contributions of retinal input and phenomenal representation of a fixation object to the saccadic gap effect

The saccadic "gap effect" refers to a phenomenon whereby saccadic reaction times (SRTs) are shortened by the removal of a visual fixation stimulus prior to target presentation. In the current study, we investigated whether the gap effect was influenced by retinal input of a fixation stimulus, as well as phenomenal permanence and/or expectation of the re-emergence of a fixation stimulus. In Expe...

Preattentive Precursors to Phenomenal Properties

What are the relations between preattentive feature-placing and states of perceptual awareness? For the purposes of this paper, states of "perceptual awareness" are confined to the simplest possible exemplars: states in which one is aware of some aspect of the appearance of something one perceives. Subjective contours are used as an example. Early visual processing seems to employ independent, ...
