Walking on Visual Illusions [PDF]
In nature, sensory and physical characteristics of the environment tend to match; for example, a surface that looks bumpy is bumpy. In human-built environments, they often don’t.

Visual Illusions in Radiology: Untrue Perceptions in Medical Images and Their Implications for Diagnostic Accuracy [PDF]
Errors in radiologic interpretation are largely the result of failures of perception. This remains true despite the increasing use of computer-aided detection and diagnosis.

From perceptual organization to visual illusions and back [PDF]
In modern vision science, illusions are compelling phenomena useful as tools to explore vision under limiting psychophysical conditions. Illusions manifest at least two issues that challenge scientists.

Age-related changes in the susceptibility to visual illusions of size [PDF]
As the global population ages, understanding of the effect of aging on visual perception is of growing importance. This study investigates age-related changes in adulthood along size perception through the lens of three visual illusions: the Ponzo ...

Visual Illusions: An interesting tool to investigate developmental dyslexia and autism spectrum disorder [PDF]
A visual illusion refers to a percept that is different in some aspect from the physical stimulus. Illusions are a powerful non-invasive tool for understanding the neurobiology of vision, telling us, indirectly, how the brain processes visual stimuli ...

Specific visual expertise reduces susceptibility to visual illusions [PDF]
Extensive exposure to specific kinds of imagery tunes visual perception, enhancing recognition and interpretation abilities relevant to those stimuli (e.g. radiologists can rapidly extract important information from medical scans). For the first time, we

Too Bright to Focus? Influence of Brightness Illusions and Ambient Light Levels on the Dynamics of Ocular Accommodation [PDF]
Can brightness illusions modulate ocular accommodation? Previous studies have shown that brightness illusions can influence pupil size as if caused by actual luminance increases.

Aesthetic Valence of Visual Illusions [PDF]
Visual illusions constitute an interesting perceptual phenomenon, but they also have an aesthetic and affective dimension. We hypothesized that the illusive nature itself causes the increased aesthetic and affective valence of illusions compared with ...

Filled space and filled time illusions vary similarly with analogous stimulus parameters [PDF]
Visual filled space (Oppel-Kundt) and auditory filled time illusions distort the perception of spatial width and temporal length, respectively. Although these two illusions occur in different physical domains, space and time, their construction ...
