A new multiresolution wavelet model is presented here, which accounts for brightness
assimilation and contrast effects in a unified framework, and includes known psychophysical …

Brightness induction includes both contrast and assimilations effects. Brightness contrast
occurs when the brightness of a test region shifts away from the brightness of adjacent …

Blakeslee and McCourt ((1997) Vision Research, 37, 2849–2869) demonstrated that a
multiscale array of two-dimensional difference-of-Gaussian (DOG) filters provided a simple …

The White effect [Perception 8 (1979) 413] cannot be simply explained as due to either
brightness contrast or brightness assimilation because the direction of the induced …

We introduce two new low-level computational models of brightness perception that account
for a wide range of brightness illusions, including many variations on White's Effect …

Blakeslee and McCourt [Blakeslee, B., & McCourt, ME (1997). Similar mechanisms underlie
simultaneous brightness contrast and grating induction. Vision Research, 37, 2849–2869] …

In a previous work (X. Otazu, M. Vanrell, & CA Párraga, 2008b), we showed how several
brightness induction effects can be predicted using a simple multiresolution wavelet model …

Abstract The Oriented Difference of Gaussians (ODOG) model of brightness (perceived
intensity) by Blakeslee and McCourt (Vision Research 39: 4361-4377, 1999), which is based …

The experiments explore whether the mechanism (s) underlying grating induction (GI) can
also account for simultaneous brightness contrast (SBC). At each of three test field heights …

Brightness (perceived intensity) and lightness (perceived reflectance) matching were
investigated in seven well-known visual stimuli that contain a visible shadow or transparent …
