Theories on visual perception agree that scenes are processed in terms of spatial
frequencies. Low spatial frequencies (LSF) carry coarse information whereas high spatial …

This paper argues for a novel way of thinking about hallucinations as intensified forms of
mind-wandering. Starting from the observation that hallucinations are associated with …

Machine learning can provide deep insights into data, allowing machines to make high-
quality predictions and having been widely used in real-world applications, such as text …

Coarse-to-fine theories of vision propose that the coarse information carried by the low
spatial frequencies (LSF) of visual input guides the integration of finer, high spatial …

Drawings offer a simple and efficient way to communicate meaning. While line drawings
capture only coarsely how objects look in reality, we still perceive them as resembling real …

In recent years, researchers from independent subfields have begun to engage with the idea
that the same cortical regions that contribute to on-line perception are recruited during and …

Visual analysis begins with the parallel extraction of different attributes at different spatial
frequencies. Low spatial frequencies (LSF) convey coarse information and are characterized …

In complex real-world scenes, image content is conveyed by a large collection of intertwined
visual features. The visual system disentangles these features in order to extract information …

Neuroimaging studies have found distinct patterns of response to different categories of
scenes. However, the relative importance of low-level image properties in generating these …

It is often assumed that the human brain processes the global and local properties of visual
stimuli in a lateralized fashion, with a left hemisphere (LH) specialization for local detail, and …
