Visual perception of markings [PDF]

open access: yesPsychonomic Bulletin and Review, 1996
Markings, such as designs, writings, diagrams, and depictions, are expressive and communicative human artifacts. The conventional assumption that findings from the study of the visual perception of markings-in particular, of pictures-can be generalized to real-world perception is examined and found to be false.

Attention and visual perception

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2005
Somewhere between the retina and our conscious visual experience, the majority of the information impinging on the eye is lost. We are typically aware of only either the most salient parts of a visual scene or the parts that we are actively paying attention to. Recent research on visual neurons in monkeys is beginning to show how the brain both selects

Denial of visual perception

Brain and Cognition, 1991
An adult with the diagnosis of cortical blindness, complaining of a complete visual loss of 2 years in duration, was found to have a small preserved visual field and remarkably preserved visual abilities. Although denying visual perception, he correctly named objects, colors, and famous faces, recognized facial emotions, and read various types of ...

Visual Perception and Xerography

Science, 1968
An electrostatic copying machine was used to model the perception of simultaneous brightness contrast. Such a model may assist the study of sensory inhibition by permitting the study of complex situations as they are transformed by rules similar to those at work in neural integration.

Visual Motion Perception

Scientific American, 1975
In this article the author uses projective relations as the theoretical foundation of his investigations of visual space and motion. Several laboratory experiments involving perceptual vector analysis and its geometric basis are described. In most of the experiments the visual stimuli consisted of computer-controlled patterns displayed on a ...

The Perception of Visual Surfaces

The American Journal of Psychology, 1950
The writer has recently proposed the theory that visual space-perception is reducible to the perception of visual surfaces, and that distance, depth, and orientation, together with the constancy of objects, may all be derived from the properties of an array of surfaces.' The notion of completely empty space is asserted to be irrelevant for the theory ...

The perception of visual motion

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 1992
Recent developments have led to a greater insight into the complex processes of perception of visual motion. A better understanding of the neuronal circuitry involved and advances in electrophysiological techniques have allowed researchers to alter the perception of an animal with a stimulating electrode.

Visual Perception of Parallel Coordinate Visualizations

2009 13th International Conference Information Visualisation, 2009
Parallel coordinates is a visualization technique that provides an unbiased representation of high-dimensional data. The parallel configuration of axes treats data dimensions uniformly and is well suited for exploratory visualization. However, first-time users of parallel coordinate visualizations can find the representation confusing and difficult to ...

The physics of visual perception

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. B, Biological Sciences, 1980
Abstract By measuring the contrast threshold for gratings of different waveform and spatial frequency, Campbell & Robson suggested in 1968 that there may be ‘channels’ tuned to different spatial frequencies. By using the technique of adapting to a high contrast grating, it was possible to measure the band-pass characteristics of ...
