Depth interactions between inclined and slanted surfaces in vertical and horizontal orientations.

abstract：:Not only translations and rotations, but also intriguing 'plastic deformations' are observed in apparent motion. What kinds of invariants does the visual system depend on during these transformations to determine that two figures of different shapes nevertheless represent the same object? Experiments are reported in w...
