Separate first- and second-order processing is supported by spatial summation estimates at the fovea and eccentrically

چکیده
We estimated spatial summation areas for the detection of luminance-modulated (LM) and contrast-modulated (CM) blobs at the fovea, 2.5, 5 and 10 deg eccentrically. Gaussian profiles were added or multiplied to binary white noise to create LM and CM blob stimuli and these were used to psychophysically estimate detection thresholds and spatial summation areas. The results reveal significantly larger summation areas for detecting CM than LM blobs across eccentricity. These differences are comparable to receptive field size estimates made in V1 and V2. They support the notion that separate spatial processing occurs for the detection of LM and CM stimuli.

Second-Order Statistical Texture Representation of Asphalt Pavement Distress Images Based on Local Binary Pattern in Spatial and Wavelet Domain
Assessment of pavement distresses is one of the important parts of pavement management systems to adopt the most effective road maintenance strategy. In the last decade, extensive studies have been done to develop automated systems for pavement distress processing based on machine vision techniques. One of the most important structural components of computer vision is the feature extraction met...
متن کاملCrowding between first- and second-order letter stimuli in normal foveal and peripheral vision.
Evidence that the detection of first- and second-order visual stimuli is processed by separate pathways abounds. This study asked whether first- and second-order stimuli remain independent at the stage of processing where crowding occurs. We measured thresholds for identifying a first-order (luminance defined) or second-order (contrast defined) target letter in the presence of two second- or fi...

Displacement-based methods are recognized as appropriate approaches to reach the goals of performance-based seismic design method. In the direct displacement-based seismic design method, the seismic yield displacement is applied as one of the important design parameters. In this paper, a new relation is suggested to determine the lateral displacement pattern at first yielding of eccentrically b...

In secure multiparty computation (SMC), a group of users jointly and securely computes a mathematical function on their private inputs, such that the privacy of their private inputs will be preserved. One of the widely used applications of SMC is the secure multiparty summation which securely computes the summation value of the users’ private inputs. In this paper, we consider a secure multipar...

Bivariate random regression models were used to estimate variance components of test-day milk yields (TDMY) in the first and second lactations of Iranian buffaloes. Data included 10,133 TDMY records from 862 Iranian buffaloes for first lactation and 786 for second lactation which were collected from 1993 to 2011 by the animal breeding centre of Iran. The models of analysis included the fixed ef...
