Our visual perception of the world - seeing form and colour or navigating the environment - depends on the interaction of light and matter in the environment. Light also has a more fundamental role in regulating rhythms in physiology and behaviour, as well ...
The Neurorobotics Platform of the Human Brain Project hosts many different large-scale models that can easily be connected with each other. Here, we linked a deep neural network for saliency computation to a spiking cortical model for visual segmentation ( ...
In our experience of daylit architecture, our visual perception is greatly impacted by the ephemeral and inherently dynamic conditions of the surrounding environment. Driven by changes in sky type, time-of-day, and time-of-year, these variable conditions c ...
Daylit architecture is perceived as a dynamic luminous composition, yet most existing performance metrics were designed to evaluate natural illumination for its ability to adequately illuminate a two-dimensional task surface and avoid glare-based discomfor ...
Crowding is traditionally thought to occur by local interactions between the target and the neighboring flankers, for example, by pooling neural responses corresponding to both the target and flankers. Accordingly, crowding is thought to occur within a sma ...
Gestalt psychology is often criticized as lacking quantitative measurements and precise mathematical models. While this is true of the early Gestalt school, today there are many quantitative approaches in Gestalt perception and the special issue of Vision ...
Perceptual learning is the ability to improve perception through practice. Perceptual learning is usually specific for the task and the stimulus features trained with. For example, training orientation discrimination with vertically oriented stimuli does n ...
