A Biomimetic Model of Adaptive Contrast Vision Enhancement from Mantis Shrimp [PDF]
Sensors, 2020 Mantis shrimp have complex visual sensors, and thus, they have both color vision and polarization vision, and are adept at using polarization information for visual tasks, such as finding prey. In addition, mantis shrimp, almost unique among animals, can

Contrast and phase combination in binocular vision. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 How the visual system combines information from the two eyes to form a unitary binocular representation of the external world is a fundamental question in vision science that has been the focus of many psychophysical and physiological investigations ...

The effect of magnification and contrast on reading performance in different types of simulated low vision [PDF]
Journal of Eye Movement Research, 2017 Low vision therapy, such as magnifiers or contrast enhancement, is widely used. Scientific evidence proving its efficacy is scarce however. The objective of this study was to investigate whether the benefits of magnification and contrast enhancement ...

VI-OCR: “Visually Impaired” optical character recognition pipeline for text accessibility assessment [PDF]
Scientific ReportsLow vision adversely impacts daily activities, particularly reading. However, quantifying text accessibility for different levels of low vision is challenging, leading to product designs that often overlook the vision status of low vision readers.

The Relationship between Binocular Summation in Contrast Sensitivity and Stereopsis: Cross Sectional Study [PDF]
مجله پژوهش در علوم توانبخشی, 2021 Introduction: Binocular summation occurs in the presence of normal visual function of both eyes. Stereopsis is considered to be the finest function of binocular vision. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of binocular summation

The importance of contrast features in rat vision
Scientific Reports, 2023 Models of object recognition have mostly focused upon the hierarchical processing of objects from local edges up to more complex shape features. An alternative strategy that might be involved in pattern recognition centres around coarse-level contrast ...

Attentional modulation of temporal contrast sensitivity in human vision. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Recent psychophysical studies have shown that attention can alter contrast sensitivities for temporally broadband stimuli such as flashed gratings. The present study examined the effect of attention on the contrast sensitivity for temporally narrowband ...
