Visual sensitivity and cortical response to the temporal envelope of amplitude-modulated flicker

JOSA A, Vol. 26 Issue 11, pp.2346-2352 (2009)
Okamoto, Yosuke; Nakagawa, Seiji; Fujii, Kenji; Yano, Takashi
To investigate the perception of a temporal envelope of flickering light is important for understanding nonlinear temporal processing in the visual system. The influence of the...

A spectral theory of color perception

JOSA A, Vol. 26 Issue 12, pp.2488-2502 (2009)
Clark, James J; Skaff, Sandra
The paper adopts the philosophical stance that colors are real and can be identified with spectral models based on the photoreceptor signals. A statistical setting represents...

Stochastic variations in sensory awareness are driven by noisy neuronal adaptation: evidence from serial correlations in perceptual bistability

JOSA A, Vol. 26 Issue 12, pp.2612-2622 (2009)
van Ee, Raymond
When the sensory system is subjected to ambiguous input, perception alternates between interpretations in a seemingly random fashion. Although neuronal noise obviously plays a role,...
