Abstract Hering's Opponent-Colors Theory has been central to understanding color
appearance for 150 years. It aims to explain the phenomenology of colors with two linked …

Visual information arriving at the retina is transmitted to the brain by signals in the optic
nerve, and the brain must rely solely on these signals to make inferences about the visual …

Estimating the illuminant from a color-biased image is an ill-posed problem without prior
information or invariance about the surfaces of a scene. Based on the classical image …

It is a mystery how the brain decodes color vision purely from the optic nerve signals it
receives, with a core inferential challenge being how it disentangles internal perception with …

Red-green color discrimination is compromised in anomalous trichromacy, the most
common inherited color vision deficiency. This computational analysis tested whether three …

The spectral locus of unique yellow was determined for flashes of different sizes (< 11
arcmin) and durations (< 500 ms) presented in and near the fovea. An adaptive optics …

When single cones are stimulated with spots of 543-nm light presented against a white
background, subjects report percepts that vary between predominately red, white, and …

This chapter considers how the diverse tissues of the eye interact with the visual
environment in ways that could regulate refractive eye growth. First, the committee reviews …

Inherited color vision deficiency affects red-green discrimination in about one in twelve men
from European populations. Its effects have been studied mainly in primitive foraging but …

Abstract Models of sensory processing have historically abstracted underlying biological
circuits, due to unknown connectivity and/or complexity. In contrast, the use of tractable and …
