چکیده

Stereo-vision is generally considered to provide information about depth in a visual scene derived from disparities in the positions of an image on the two eyes; a new study has found evidence that retinal-image coding relative to the head is also important.

Head-Centric Disparity and Epipolar Geometry Estimation from a Population of Binocular Energy Neurons

We present a hybrid neural network architecture that supports the estimation of binocular disparity in a cyclopean, head-centric coordinate system without explicitly establishing retinal correspondences. Instead the responses of binocular energy neurons are gain-modulated by oculomotor signals. The network can handle the full six degrees of freedom of binocular gaze and operates directly on ima...

Path perception and Filehne illusion compared: model and data

Pursuit eye movements introduce retinal motion that complicates the recovery of self-motion from retinal flow. An extra-retinal, eye-velocity signal could be used to aid estimation of the observer's path, perhaps by converting retino-centric into head-centric motion. This conversion is apparently not precise because we often misperceive head-centric object velocity: in the Filehne illusion, for...

Heading detection using motion templates and eye velocity gain fields

Eye or head rotation would influence perceived heading direction if it were coded by cells tuned only to retinal flow patterns that correspond to linear self-movement. We propose a model for heading detection based on motion templates that are also Gaussian-tuned to the amount of rotational flow. Such retinal flow templates allow explicit use of extra-retinal signals to create templates tuned t...

Perceived head-centric speed is affected by both extra-retinal and retinal errors

When we make a smooth eye movement to track a moving object, the visual system must take the eye's movement into account in order to estimate the object's velocity relative to the head. This can be done by using extra-retinal signals to estimate eye velocity and then subtracting expected from observed retinal motion. Two familiar illusions of perceived velocity--the Filehne illusion and Aubert-...

Perisaccadic Stereo Depth with Zero Retinal Disparity

When an object is viewed binocularly, unequal perspective projections of the two eyes' half images (binocular disparity) provide a cue for the sensation of stereo depth. For almost 200 years, binocular disparity has remained synonymous with retinal disparity, which is computed by subtracting the distance of each half image from its respective fovea. However, binocular disparity could also be co...
