چکیده

What a human’s eye tells a human’s brain? In this paper, we analyze the information capacity of visual attention. Our hypothesis is that the limit of perceptible spatial frequency is related to observing time. Given more time, one can obtain higher resolution that is, higher spatial frequency information, of the presented visual stimuli. We designed an experiment to simulate natural viewing conditions, in which time dependent characteristics of the attention can be evoked; and we recorded the temporal responses of 6 subjects. Based on the experiment results, we propose a person-independent model that characterizes the behavior of eyes, relating visual spatial resolution with the duration of attentional concentration time. This model suggests that the information capacity of visual attention is time-dependent.

Just Noticeable Difference Estimation Using Visual Saliency in Images

Due to some physiological and physical limitations in the brain and the eye, the human visual system (HVS) is unable to perceive some changes in the visual signal whose range is lower than a certain threshold so-called just-noticeable distortion (JND) threshold. Visual attention (VA) provides a mechanism for selection of particular aspects of a visual scene so as to reduce the computational loa...
