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, interactions between the two systems are also apparent. Here we constructed stimuli that contained a constant number of moving checks. The checks were either assigned only one contrast polarity, or contrast polarity was distributed across the checks either randomly or evenly. We investigated how the spatial configuration of the moving stimulus affected direction discrimination thresholds for the different polarity distributions. Our results provide new evidence for contrast-sign-specific integration of local motion signals within areas of limited size, and inhibitory interactions between these separate ON and OFF motion sensor pools.

  • On-line and model-based approaches to the visual control of action.

    abstract::Two general approaches to the visual control of action have emerged in last few decades, known as the on-line and model-based approaches. The key difference between them is whether action is controlled by current visual information or on the basis of an internal world model. In this paper, we evaluate three hypotheses...
