The obvious symptoms of schizophrenia are of cognitive and psychopathological nature. However, schizophrenia affects also visual processing which becomes particularly evident when stimuli are presented for short durations and are followed by a masking stim ...
Schizophrenic patients suffer from many deficits including visual, attentional, and cognitive ones. Visual deficits are of particular interest because they are at the fore-end of information processing and can provide clear examples of interactions between ...
In classical models of object recognition, first, basic features (e.g., edges and lines) are analyzed by independent filters that mimic the receptive field profiles of V1 neurons. In a feedforward fashion, the outputs of these filters are fed to filters at ...
Contrast sensitivity of the human visual system to visual stimuli can be significantly affected by several mechanisms, e. g., vision foveation and attention. Existing studies on foveation based video quality assessment only take into account static foveati ...
Visual search is a good illustration about how the brain coordinates a variety of functions such as visual clues extraction from the scene, coordination of the eye-movements, accumu- lation of visual information and visual recognition. It has an important ...
Functional MR spectroscopy (fMRS) allows to investigate the metabolic response of the brain to a physiological stimulation, by acquiring continuously MR spectra during a functional task, and provides direct insights into brain metabolism. For the studies o ...
When two similar visual stimuli are presented in rapid succession at the same location, they fuse. For example, a red and a green disk are perceived as one single yellow disk. Likewise, verniers with opposite offset directions are perceived as one vernier ...

In the main part of this thesis, I investigate the neural correlates of nonretinotopic processing. We might intuitively think of the visual representation of the world as retinotopic, as is the case for the organization of most visual brain areas, but in f ...
Neurofeedback based on real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a new approach that allows training of voluntary control over regionally specific brain activity. However, the neural basis of successful neurofeedback learning remains poorly ...
Introduction: Flankers can strongly deteriorate performance on a visual target (crowding). For example, vernier offset discrimination is strongly affected by neighboring flankers. Interestingly, performance for longer and shorter flankers is better than pe ...
