Lawful relation between perceptual bias and discriminability

XX Wei, AA Stocker - … of the National Academy of Sciences, 2017 - National Acad Sciences
Perception of a stimulus can be characterized by two fundamental psychophysical
measures: how well the stimulus can be discriminated from similar ones (discrimination …

A Bayesian observer model constrained by efficient coding can explain'anti-Bayesian'percepts

XX Wei, AA Stocker - Nature neuroscience, 2015 - nature.com
Bayesian observer models provide a principled account of the fact that our perception of the
world rarely matches physical reality. The standard explanation is that our percepts are …

Detection and identification: how are they related?

JP Thomas - Josa a, 1985 - opg.optica.org
Detection and identification are described as using the same base of sensory information
but applying different decision processes. Consistent with this view, there is no evidence of …

Hyperacuity thresholds of 1 sec: theoretical predictions and empirical validation

SA Klein, DM Levi - JOSA A, 1985 - opg.optica.org
Bisection thresholds were measured as a function of the separation of the lines. For
separations of less than 1.5 min, the addition of flanking lines facilitates bisection so that …

SR Lehky, TJ Sejnowski - Journal of Neuroscience, 1990 - Soc Neuroscience
We have developed a model for the representation of stereo disparity by a population of
neurons that is based on tuning curves similar in shape to those measured physiologically …

[HTML][HTML] Object image size is a fundamental coding dimension in human vision: New insights and model

TS Meese, DH Baker - Neuroscience, 2023 - Elsevier
In previous psychophysical work we found that luminance contrast is integrated over retinal
area subject to contrast gain control. If different mechanisms perform this operation for a …

Perceptual asymmetries are preserved in short-term memory tasks

L Montaser-Kouhsari, M Carrasco - Attention, Perception, & …, 2009 - Springer
Visual performance is heterogeneous at isoeccentric locations; it is better on the horizontal

Spatial scaling of central and peripheral contrast-sensitivity functions

A Johnston - JOSA A, 1987 - opg.optica.org
Contrast sensitivity was measured as a function of spatial frequency at various eccentricities
in the nasal visual field. Eccentricity influenced resolution more for vertical gratings than for …
