Peacock spiders prefer image statistics of average natural scenes over those of male ornamentation
MC Hardenbicker, C Tedore - Behavioral Ecology, 2023 - academic.oup.com
The origins of preferences that drive the evolution of arbitrary sexual signals have been hotly
debated for more than 150 years. An emerging but little-tested theory, efficient coding theory …

Colour vision is aligned with natural scene statistics at 4 months of age
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 …

A mechanistic account of visual discomfort
Much of the neural machinery of the early visual cortex, from the extraction of local
orientations to contextual modulations through lateral interactions, is thought to have …
