In these last years the applications involving 3D data are quickly increasing in number and many efforts to obtain 3D models by direct acquisition or modeling have been deployed. Additionally, the computer graphics power reached by personal computers and Internet have incremented the diffusion of this new media. For these reasons, the interest in developing techniques to provide IPR protection ...

The term 'visual adaptation' describes the processes by which the visual system alters its operating properties in response to changes in the environment. These continual adjustments in sensory processing are diagnostic as to the computational principles underlying the neural coding of information and can have profound consequences for our perceptual experience. New physiological and psychophys...

A group of psychophysiINFORMATIONAL ASPECTS OF VISUAL PERCEPTION 187 cal studies determining the accuracy with which observers are able to extrapolate certain discrete and continuous functions of varying complexity must be carried...

The previously separate literatures on visual attention and on visual working memory are converging, with growing interest in how visual attention may relate to visual short-term memory, as exemplified by this special issue. We report exploratory analysis of how individual behavioural differences in separable aspects of attention may relate to particular aspects of visual working memory. Previo...
