Enhanced attention to fear expressions in adults is primarily driven by information from low as opposed to high spatial frequencies contained in faces. However, little is known about the role of spatial frequency information in emotion processing during infancy. In the present study, we examined the role of low compared to high spatial frequencies in the processing of happy and fearful facial e...

-This paper presents a computational model and a practical algorithm for determining the three-dimensional orientation of a planar surface from visual texture information. The model consists of three parts: (1) a local spatial frequency based texture representation; (2) a model describing the projection of surface texture to image texture; and (3) a solution of the texture projection model for ...

The orientation bandwidths of psychophysically defined channels of human vision were estimated by two techniques for a wide range of spatial and temporal frequencies. The first technique was an adaptation paradigm, where the subjects’ ability to see patterns of various orientations was measured before and after adapting to a high contrast pattern. The second technique evaluated subjects’ abilit...
