Surface integration influences depth discrimination
Image fragments arising from partial occlusion may be perceptually unified by a surface integration process on the basis of similar color or texture. In a new objective measure pitting surface feature similarity against binocular disparity, observers discriminated whether a colored circle had either crossed or uncrossed disparity relative to a surrounding gray rectangle. Sensitivity to disparit...
متن کاملVisual discrimination of local surface depth and orientation.
Many theoretical analyses of 3-dimensional form perception assume that visible surfaces in the environment are perceptually represented in terms of local mappings of metric depth and/or orientation. Although this approach is often taken for granted in the study of human vision, there have been relatively few attempts to demonstrate its psychological validity empirically. In an effort to shed ne...
متن کاملContour integration across depth
In order to investigate the extent of the local connections subserving contour integration across depth, we measured performance for detecting the continuity of a path of Gabor elements distributed in depth and embedded in a three-dimensional field of random background elements. The results show that performance cannot be explained in terms of monocular performance and that contour information ...
متن کاملThe effects of contrast on perceived depth and depth discrimination
The contrast dependence of perceived depth was quantified through a series of depth matching experiments. Perceived depth was found to be a power law function of contrast. In addition, subjects exhibited a large uncrossed depth bias indicating that low contrast test patterns appeared much farther away than high contrast patterns of equal disparity. For disparities in the range of +/- 4.0 arc mi...
متن کاملContext influences contour integration.
Much research over the last decade has examined how the brain links local activity within primary visual cortex to signal the presence of extended global structure. Here we bring together two themes within this area by addressing how the immediate context that features arise in influences how they are integrated into contours. Specifically, observers were required to detect and discriminate the...
