Perception of Motion in Statistically-Defined Displays (Enhancing Sensitivity to Visual Motion)

摘要

The grant supported three complementary major studies of motion perception, each designed to educiate a different aspect of the mechanisms that underline such perception. Project One: Directional-specific improvement in motion discrimination (Karlene Ball and Robert Sekuler). Project Two: Coherent global motion from stochastic local motions (Douglas Williams and Tobert Sekuler). Project Three: Exploring motion perception by means of psychophysical matches between physically different stimuli (metamers) Douglas Williams, Scott Tweeten, Robert Sekuler.
