In this paper, we propose a partially-blurred-image classification and analysis framework for
automatically detecting images containing blurred regions and recognizing the blur types for …

In two experiments, we investigate group and individual preferences in a range of different
types of patterns with varying fractal-like scaling characteristics. In Experiment 1, we used 1/f …

For centuries, the essence of aesthetic experience has remained one of the most intriguing
mysteries for philosophers, artists, art historians and scientists alike. Recently, views …

Visual scene category representations emerge very rapidly, yet the computational
transformations that enable such invariant categorizations remain elusive. Deep …

Ecological approaches to perception have demonstrated that information encoding by the
visual system is informed by the natural environment, both in terms of simple image …

What can art tell us about how the brain works? And what can the brain tell us about how we
perceive and create art? Humans have created visual art throughout history and its …

Visual perception in adult humans is thought to be tuned to represent the statistical
regularities of natural scenes. For example, in adults, visual sensitivity to different hues …

Flickering lights can be uncomfortable to look at and can induce seizures in observers with
photosensitive epilepsy. However, the temporal characteristics contributing to these effects …

Natural scenes share a consistent distribution of energy across spatial frequencies (SF)
known as the 1/f α amplitude spectrum (α≈ 0.8–1.5, mean 1.2). This distribution is scale …

Natural forms, often characterized by irregularity and roughness, have a unique complexity
that exhibit self-similarity across different spatial scales or levels of magnification. Our visual …
