Visual crowding: A fundamental limit on conscious perception and object recognition
Crowding, the inability to recognize objects in clutter, sets a fundamental limit on conscious
visual perception and object recognition throughout most of the visual field. Despite how …

Capabilities and limitations of peripheral vision
R Rosenholtz - Annual review of vision science, 2016 - annualreviews.org
This review discusses several pervasive myths about peripheral vision, as well as what is
actually true: Peripheral vision underlies a broad range of visual tasks, in spite of its …

Metamers of the ventral stream
J Freeman, EP Simoncelli - Nature neuroscience, 2011 - nature.com
The human capacity to recognize complex visual patterns emerges in a sequence of brain
areas known as the ventral stream, beginning with primary visual cortex (V1). We developed …

Summary statistics in auditory perception
JH McDermott, M Schemitsch, EP Simoncelli - Nature neuroscience, 2013 - nature.com
Sensory signals are transduced at high resolution, but their structure must be stored in a
more compact format. Here we provide evidence that the auditory system summarizes the …

Beyond blur: Real-time ventral metamers for foveated rendering
To peripheral vision, a pair of physically different images can look the same. Such pairs are
metamers relative to each other, just as physically-different spectra of light are perceived as …

The impending demise of the item in visual search
J Hulleman, CNL Olivers - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2017 - cambridge.org
The way the cognitive system scans the visual environment for relevant information–visual
search in short–has been a long-standing central topic in vision science. From its inception …

Variations in crowding, saccadic precision, and spatial localization reveal the shared topology of spatial vision
Visual sensitivity varies across the visual field in several characteristic ways. For example,
sensitivity declines sharply in peripheral (vs. foveal) vision and is typically worse in the …

[HTML][HTML] Crowding, grou**, and object recognition: A matter of appearance
In crowding, the perception of a target strongly deteriorates when neighboring elements are
presented. Crowding is usually assumed to have the following characteristics.(a) Crowding …

[HTML][HTML] Grou**, pooling, and when bigger is better in visual crowding
In crowding, perception of a target is strongly deteriorated by nearby elements. Crowding is
often explained by pooling models predicting that adding flankers increases crowding. In …

Selectivity and tolerance for visual texture in macaque V2
As information propagates along the ventral visual hierarchy, neuronal responses become
both more specific for particular image features and more tolerant of image transformations …
