Effect of contrast on detection of motion of chromatic and luminance targets: retina-relative and object-relative movement.

abstract：:In a rapid categorisation task, monkeys and humans had to detect a target (animal or food) in briefly flashed (32 ms) and previously unseen natural images. Removing colour cues had very little effect on average performance. Impairments were restricted to a mild accuracy drop (in some human subjects) and a small reacti...
