Rayleigh matches and unique green.

Abstract:

:There are recurrent reports that Rayleigh matches are bimodally distributed in the colour-normal male population. Similar claims have been made for the distribution of the spectral locus of unique green. Moreover, a positive correlation has sometimes been reported between Rayleigh matches and unique green. Using a computer-controlled Maxwellian colorimeter and bias-free psychophysical methods, we measured both variables for 97 colour-normal male observers. We do not find a bimodal distribution either of Rayleight matches or of settings of unique green. Nor do we find any correlation between the two variables. However, we do observe a very significant relationship between the lightness of the subject's iris and the wavelength that he judges to be unique green.

  • Spatial structure, contrast polarity and motion integration.

    abstract::It has been shown that in the initial stages of motion processing, the ON and OFF pathways stay more or less separated. There is evidence that this distinction between motion signals from opposite contrast polarities remains at least partly intact in the integration stage of local motion information. At the same time,...
