Motion grouping prevents individual access to features in human vision

Anne-Sylvie Crisinel, Michael Herzog, Gijs Plomp

2008

Figural grouping affects contextual modulation in low level vision

Michael Herzog, Bilge Sayim

Embedding a target within contextual elements can influence performance in visual tasks. For example, when a vernier is flanked by two lines, discrimination performance deteriorates strongly compared to unflanked presentation. This contextual modulation is ...

Modeling spatial and temporal aspects of visual backward masking

Wulfram Gerstner, Michael Herzog, Gediminas Luksys

Visual backward masking is a versatile tool for understanding principles and limitations of visual information processing in the human brain. However, the mechanisms underlying masking are still poorly understood. In the current contribution, the authors s ...

Modelling feature-integration in human vision with drift diffusion models

Wulfram Gerstner, Nicolas Marcille, Michael Herzog, Johannes Rüter

How TMS and (light) masks modulate feature integration

Time-course and surround modulation of contrast masking in human vision

Michael Herzog, Toni Saarela

Neural and perceptual responses to a visual stimulus can be suppressed by the addition of both spatially overlapping and spatially adjacent contextual stimuli. We investigated the temporal characteristics of these suppressive interactions in psychophysical ...

Crowding in human vision is modulated by global stimulus configuration

Stimulus interference in visual perceptual learning in roving conditions

Crowding is modulated by global stimulus configuration

Michael Herzog, Toni Saarela, Bilge Sayim

In crowding, neighbouring elements impair the perception of a target. Crowding is often considered a consequence of spatial pooling of visual information. We investigated the role of configural effects in crowding by manipulating the global stimulus config ...

Perceived speed differences explain apparent compression in slit viewing

Michael Herzog

When a figure moves behind a stationary narrow slit, observers often report seeing the figure as an integrated whole, a phenomenon known as slit viewing or anorthoscopic perception. Interestingly, in slit viewing, the figure is perceived compressed along t ...

Grouping in the shine-through effect

Michael Herzog

How the elements of a visual scene are grouped into objects is one of the most fundamental but still poorly understood questions in visual neuroscience. Most investigations of perceptual grouping focus on static stimuli, neglecting temporal aspects. Using ...

Enhanced temporal but not attentional processing in expert tennis players

Michael Herzog, Olaf Blanke

In tennis, as in many disciplines of sport, fine spatio-temporal resolution is required to reach optimal performance. While many studies on tennis have focused on anticipatory skills or decision making, fewer have investigated the underlying visual percept ...

Perceptual learning requires a minimal number of trials per session, but no sleep

Michael Herzog, Elisa Tartaglia, Carl Kristoffer Aberg

A common assumption in perceptual learning is that the improvement of performance basically depends on the amount of training. However, other factors such as sleep and training intensity (trials per session) have also been shown to be important. We trained ...

Visual masking and the dynamics of human perception, cognition, and consciousness: A century of progress, a contemporary synthesis, and future directions

Michael Herzog, Gregory Francis

The 1990s, the "decade of the brain", witnessed major advances in the study of visual perception, cognition, and consciousness. Impressive techniques in neurophysiology, neuroanatomy, neuropsychology, electrophysiology, psychophysics and brain-imaging were ...

What is the strength of a mask in visual metacontrast masking?

Michael Herzog, Gregory Francis

After more than a century of research, the mechanisms underlying visual masking are still hotly debated. One key characteristic of masking is that variations in the stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) between the target and the mask can lead to either monotoni ...

Consciousness & the Small Network Argument

Wulfram Gerstner, Michael Herzog

The last decade has experienced a vivid enthusiasm to unravel the mystery of consciousness believed to be one of the major puzzles of humankind. We share this enthusiasm. Still,we feel that current models are incomplete suffering from a problem that we cal ...

Collinear contextual suppression in schizophrenic patients

Michael Herzog

Schizophrenic patients show aberrancies of contextual processing over a broad range. Of particular importance are low level contextual deficiencies since they might cause higher level processing deficits. It was previously found that schizophrenic patients ...

Grouping of contextual elements that affect vernier thresholds

Michael Herzog

To reveal the mechanisms of spatial interference in the fovea, we examined the capacity of a variety of lateral flanking configurations to interfere with alignment thresholds of a vertical vernier. A single line on each side of the vernier, at the optimal ...
