Temporal and spatial integration in dynamic random-dot stimuli.

چکیده
Random-dot cinematograms comprising many different, spatially intermingled local motion vectors can produce a percept of global coherent motion in a single direction. Thresholds for discriminating the direction of global motion were measured under various conditions. Discrimination thresholds increased with the width of the distribution of directions in the cinematogram. Thresholds decreased as the duration of area of the cinematogram increased. Temporal integration for global direction discrimination extends over about 465 msec (9.3 frames) while the spatial integration limit is at least as large as 63 deg2 (circular aperture diameter = 9 deg). The large spatial integration area is consistent with the physiology of higher visual areas such as MT and MST.

Visual motion sensitivity in dyslexia: evidence for temporal and energy integration deficits.
In addition to poor literacy skills, developmental dyslexia has been associated with multisensory deficits for dynamic stimulus detection. In vision these deficits have been suggested to result from impaired sensitivity of cells within the retino-cortical magnocellular pathway and extrastriate areas in the dorsal stream to which they project. One consequence of such selectively reduced sensitiv...
متن کاملTemporal properties of disparity processing revealed by dynamic random-dot stereograms.
In studies of the temporal flexibility of the stereoscopic system, it has been suggested that two different processes of binocular depth perception could be responsible for the flexibility: tolerance for interocular delays and temporal integration of correlation. None has investigated the relationship between tolerance for delays and temporal integration mechanisms and none has revealed which m...
متن کاملModeling V1 disparity tuning to time-varying stimuli.
Most models of disparity selectivity consider only the spatial properties of binocular cells. However, the temporal response is an integral component of real neurons' activities, and time-varying stimuli are often used in the experiments of disparity tuning. To understand the temporal dimension of V1 disparity representation, we incorporate a specific temporal response function into the dispari...
متن کاملIntegration of Motion Responses Underlying Directional Motion Anisotropy in Human Early Visual Cortical Areas
Recent imaging studies have reported directional motion biases in human visual cortex when perceiving moving random dot patterns. It has been hypothesized that these biases occur as a result of the integration of motion detector activation along the path of motion in visual cortex. In this study we investigate the nature of such motion integration with functional MRI (fMRI) using different moti...
متن کاملSpatial-scale interaction in human stereoscopic vision in response to sustained and transient stimuli
We investigated temporal properties of stereopsis at different spatial scales in dynamic random-dot stereograms (DRS) consisting of (i) the repeated presentation of two image pairs (i.e. sustained presentation) and (ii) single presentations of two image pairs (transient presentation). In dense stereograms perception of depth is possible if the levels of interocular correlation are above a certa...
