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 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 ...

The effect of serifs and stroke contrast on low vision reading
Acta Psychologica, 2023 Purpose: Patients with low vision are generally recommended to use the same fonts as individuals with normal vision. However, we are yet to fully understand whether stroke width and serifs (small ornamentations at stroke endings) can increase readability.

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

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 ...
