Cortical representation of visual three-dimensional space.

abstract：:Using simple, single angular figures, including figures containing only one line, we have shown systematic misestimations of distance defined by these figures. These misestimations are not related to the absolute distance per se, but are related both to the size of the angle defining the distance, and to the part of t...

abstract：:Abstract. Observers can recover motion with respect to the head during an eye movement by comparing signals encoding retinal motion and the velocity of pursuit. Evidently there is a mismatch between these signals because perceived head-centred motion is not always veridical. One example is the Filehne illusion, in whi...
