Neurophysiological studies have shown in animals that a sudden sound enhanced perceptual processing of subsequent visual stimuli. In the present study, we explored the possibility that such enhancement also exists in humans and can be explained through
Art and visual perception
free download
Psychological Forces: What a person perceives is not only an arrangement of objects, colors, shapes, movements and sizes, but, perhaps first of all, an interplay of directed tensions. The latter are inherent in any percept. Because they have magnitude and direction
Visual perception and world knowledge: Notes on a model of sensory-cognitive interaction

This exchange between subject and experimenter was invented by Miller to make a point about perceptual experience: Normal percep-tion is concerned with seeing real-world objects, not patches of color. The viewer finds it extremely difficult, even if pressed, to attend
Affordances and the body: An intentional analysis of Gibsons ecological approach to visual perception

Bayesian approaches have enjoyed a great deal of recent success in their application lo problems in computer vision (Grenander. 1976-1981; Bolle Cooper. 1984; Geman Geman. 1984; Marroquin et aí,. Ì985; Szeliski, 1989; Clark Yuille. 1990; Yuilte Clark
Bayesian decision theory as a model of human visual perception : Testing Bayesian transfer

Bayesian decision theory (BDT) is a mathematical framework that allows the experimenter to model ideal performance in a wide variety of visuomotor tasks. The experimenter can use BDT to compute benchmarks for ideal performance in such tasks and compare human
Visual imagery without visual perception

The question regarding visual imagery and visual perception remain an open issue. Many studies have tried to understand if the two processes share the same mechanisms or if they are independent, using different neural substrates. Most research has been directed towards
Disturbances of active visual perception with lesions of the frontal lobes
free download
Elaboration of complex visual information is an active process of selection of the most informative parts of the visual object, comparison of several details perceived, elaboration of hypotheses concerning the meaning of the whole and eduction of an appropriate meaning In this paper, we consider theories about processes of visual perception and perception – based knowledge representation (VPR) in order to explain difficulties encountered in figural processing in junior high school geometry tasks. In order to analyze such difficulties, we take

One of the most important problems in visual perception is that of visual invariance: how are objects perceived to be the same despite undergoing transformations such as translations, rotations or scaling In this paper, we describe a Bayesian method for learning invariances
Computational theories of visual perception

Relative phase has been studied extensively as a measure of interlimb coordination. Only two relative phases, namely 0° and 180°, are stably produced at the preferred frequency (∼ 1 Hz). When frequency is increased, movement at 180° becomes unstable and relative
