Binocular suppression occurs in object-centered coordinates

Michael Herzog, Marco Boi, Marcus Leonardus Vergeer

In binocular rivalry, only one image is perceived consciously when different, incompatible images are presented to the left and right eye, respectively. The other image is suppressed. Binocular suppression is generally assumed to occur within retinotopic c ...

Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology2012

It has long been known that colored images may elicit afterimages in complementary colors. We have already shown (Van Lier, Vergeer, & Anstis, 2009) that one and the same adapting image may result in different afterimage colors, depending on the test conto ...

Nonretinotopic Exogenous Attention

Michael Herzog, Marco Boi, Marcus Leonardus Vergeer

Attention is crucial for visual perception because it allows the visual system to effectively use its limited resources by selecting behaviorally and cognitively relevant stimuli from the large amount of information impinging on the eyes. Reflexive, stimul ...

The visual saliency map is non-retinotopic

Michael Herzog, Marco Boi, Marcus Leonardus Vergeer

Most visual search models rely on a retinotopic saliency map. Here, we provide evidence that visual saliency is computed non-retinotopically. Recently, it was shown that attention can operate in a non-retinotopic reference frame by inserting a search displ ...

The effect of figural manipulations on brightness differences in the Benary cross

Marcus Leonardus Vergeer

The Benary cross is a classical demonstration showing that the perceived brightness of an area is not solely determined by its luminance, but also by the context in which it is embedded. Despite the fact that two identical grey triangles are flanked by an ...

Feature-based activation and suppression during binocular rivalry

Marcus Leonardus Vergeer

In the past decade, effects of pattern coherence have indicated that perception during binocular rivalry does not result solely from reciprocal inhibitory competition between monocular channels. In this study we were interested in feature selectivity both ...

Capturing lightness between contours

Marcus Leonardus Vergeer

Homogeneously coloured bars may exhibit lightness differences at the intersections. A well-known example is the Hermann grid illusion, where crossing white bars on a black background show dark patches at the crossings. Jung (1973, Handbook of Sensory Physi ...

2010

It is known that when a colored surface is viewed for some time and a blank screen is presented afterwards, an afterimage can be perceived in the complementary color. Color appearances in afterimages are due to adaptation of retinal cones and they are espe ...

Grouping effects in flash-induced perceptual fading

Marcus Leonardus Vergeer

We show that the flash-induced fading effect can be influenced by grouping based on colour and shape similarity. In flash-induced fading, peripherally presented elements perceptually disappear after a flash has been presented around or next to the element( ...
