Sensory systems continuously mold themselves to the widely varying contexts in which they
must operate. Studies of these adaptations have played a long and central role in vision …

Image quality assessment (IQA) has been a topic of intense research over the last several
decades. With each year comes an increasing number of new IQA algorithms, extensions of …

FovVideoVDP is a video difference metric that models the spatial, temporal, and peripheral
aspects of perception. While many other metrics are available, our work provides the first …

Visual metrics can play an important role in the evaluation of novel lighting, rendering, and
imaging algorithms. Unfortunately, current metrics only work well for narrow intensity ranges …

The physical contrast of simple images such as sinusoidal gratings or a single patch of light
on a uniform background is well defined and agrees with the perceived contrast, but this is …

This volume presents an integrated view of how we perceive the spatial relations in our
visual world, covering anatomical, physiological, psychophysical, and perceptual aspects …

Interneurons exhibiting centre-surround antagonism within their receptive fields are
commonly found in peripheral visual pathways. We propose that this organization enables …

An algorithm is proposed for solving the stereoscopic matching problem. The algorithm
consists of five steps:(1) Each image is filtered at different orientations with bar masks of four …

This paper presents an efficient metric for quantifying the visual fidelity of natural images
based on near-threshold and suprathreshold properties of human vision. The proposed …

As with other organs, the eye's growth is regulated by homeostatic control mechanisms.
Unlike other organs, the eye relies on vision as a principal input to guide growth. In this …
