Introduction to the special issue on visual illusions [PDF]

open access: yesPsihologija, 2014
Sensory illusions have aroused surprise and interest since antiquity, because they demonstrate that our sensory systems may not always provide reliable information about the world. In this special issue on illusions several teams of authors have

What are lightness illusions and why do we see them? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2007
Lightness illusions are fundamental to human perception, and yet why we see them is still the focus of much research. Here we address the question by modelling not human physiology or perception directly as is typically the case but our natural visual ...

Consistently Inconsistent Perceptual Illusions in Nonhuman Primates: The Importance of Individual Differences

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Perceptual illusions, and especially visual illusions, are of great interest not only to scientists, but to all people who experience them. From a scientific perspective, illusory visual experiences are informative about the nature of visual processes ...
