Visual processing varies dramatically across the visual field. These differences start in the
retina and continue all the way to the visual cortex. Despite these differences in processing …

Filling-in is a perceptual phenomenon in which a visual attribute such as colour, brightness,
texture or motion is perceived in a region of the visual field even though such an attribute …

The three-volume work Perceiving in Depth is a sequel to Binocular Vision and Stereopsis
and to Seeing in Depth, both by Ian P. Howard and Brian J. Rogers. This work is much …

A colored line flanking a darker border will appear to assimilate its color onto the enclosed
white area over distances of up to 45 deg (the Watercolor Effect). This coloration is uniform …

Brightness illusions are a powerful tool in studying vision, yet their neural correlates are
poorly understood. Based on a human paradigm, we presented illusory drifting gratings to …

Visual illusions provide valuable insights into the brain's interpretation of the world given
sensory inputs. However, the precise manner in which brain activity translates into illusory …

Do we perceive fine details in the visual periphery? Here, we propose that phenomenology
in the visual periphery can be characterized by an inflated sense of perceptual capacity, as …

Four experiments examined whether Kanizsa subjective figures can induce amodal
completion of a notched circle at parallel stages of visual search. Search for the notched …

Understanding cortical microcircuitry requires theoretical models that can tease apart their
computational logic from biological details. Although Bayesian inference serves as an …

How the perception of shadows, studied by vision scientists and visual artists, reveals the
inner workings of the visual system. In The Visual World of Shadows, Roberto Casati and …
