Visual perception: Sunny side up
نویسنده
چکیده
Illumination, both natural and artificial, typically comes from above. Neurons in visual area V4--part of the object-processing pathway in the primate brain--may rely on this anisotropy to infer three-dimensional structure from shading cues.

The human visual system has a remarkable ability to interpret smooth patterns of light and shade on a surface in terms of 3-D surface geometry. Classical studies of shape{ from{shading have assumed that surface luminance depends on the local surface orientation. This classical shading model holds, for example, on a sunny day. A common situation in which the classical model fails to hold, howeve...
متن کاملComparison of visual perception error among patients with mild traumatic brain injury with healthy people
Background: Mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI) is the least brain injury due to direct or indirect blow to the head, which according to the Glasgow scale is given a score between 13 and 15. The findings indicate cognitive impairment. Perceptual dysfunction is one of the most important cognitive deficits in these patients. The present study was designed and performed to compare MTBI patients wit...
متن کاملShape-from-shading depends on visual, gravitational, and body-orientation cues.
The perception of shading-defined form results from an interaction between shading cues and the frames of reference within which those cues are interpreted. In the absence of a clear source of illumination, the definition of 'up' becomes critical to deducing the perceived shape from a particular pattern of shading. In our experiments, twelve subjects adjusted the orientation of a planar disc pa...
