Beyond Bouma's window: How to explain global aspects of crowding?

Michael Herzog, Gregory Francis, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Alban Bornet, Aaron Michael Clarke

In crowding, perception of an object deteriorates in the presence of nearby elements. Although crowding is a ubiquitous phenomenon, since elements are rarely seen in isolation, to date there exists no consensus on how to model it. Previous experiments show ...

Capsule networks, but not convolutional networks explain global configurational visual effects

Michael Herzog, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Alban Bornet

In human vision, perception of local features depends on all elements in the visual field and their exact configuration. For example, observers performed a vernier discrimination task. When a surrounding square was added to the vernier, the task became muc ...
