Properties of second-order spatial frequency channels
The segregation of texture patterns may be carried out by a set of linear spatial filters (to enhance one of the constituent textures), a nonlinearity (to convert the higher contrast of response to that constituent to a higher mean response), and finally subsequent ("second-order") linear spatial filters (to provide a strong response to the texture-defined edge itself). In this paper, the prope...
متن کاملSecond-order spatial frequency and orientation channels in human vision
We compared the number of spatial frequency and orientation mechanisms underlying first- versus second-order processing by measuring discrimination at detection threshold for first- and second-order Gabors to determine the smallest difference in spatial frequency and orientation that permits accurate discrimination at threshold. For second-order gratings, the number of channels is the same as f...
متن کاملMeasuring the spatial frequency selectivity of second-order texture mechanisms
Recent investigations of texture and motion perception suggest two early filtering stages: an initial stage of selective linear filtering followed by rectification and a second stage of linear filtering. Here we demonstrate that there are differently scaled second-stage filters, and we measure their contrast modulation sensitivity as a function of spatial frequency. Our stimuli are Gabor modula...
متن کاملSpatial frequency selective masking of first-order and second-order motion in the absence of off-frequency `looking'
Converging evidence suggests that, at least initially, first-order (luminance defined) and second-order (e.g. contrast defined) motion are processed independently in human vision. However, adaptation studies suggest that second-order motion, like first-order motion, may be encoded by spatial frequency selective mechanisms each operating over a limited range of scales. Nonetheless, the precise p...
متن کاملLow-spatial-frequency channels and the spatial frequency-doubling illusion.
PURPOSE This study examined the number and nature of spatiotemporal channels in the region where the frequency-doubling (FD) illusion would be expected to occur at eight locations spanning the central 30 degrees of the visual field. METHODS The probability of seeing the FD illusion was examined in 17 subjects. Stimuli were presented at 5 octaves of low spatial frequencies, at each of seven fl...
