Population receptive fields isolate or combine target and flankers in (un)crowding

Michael Herzog, Bogdan Draganski, Ayberk Ozkirli, Maya Anna Jastrzebowska

Crowding by neighboring elements leads to the deterioration of target discrimination. This phenomenon is traditionally explained with feedforward, hierarchical models. In these models, a “bottleneck” at the earliest stages of visual processing causes an ir ...

Perception of a target strongly deteriorates when flanking elements are presented (crowding). Classically, crowding is explained by pooling mechanisms where target and flanker features are combined, e.g., when neurons in higher visual areas with larger rec ...

The irreducibility of vision: Gestalt, crowding and the fundamentals of vision

Michael Herzog

What is fundamental in vision has been discussed for millennia. For philosophical realists and the physiological approach to vision, the objects of the outer world are truly given, and failures to perceive objects properly, such as in illusions, are just s ...

Are (feedforward) convolutional neural networks (CNNs) good models for the human visual system? Here, we used visual crowding as a well-controlled psychophysical test to probe CNNs. Visual crowding is a ubiquitous breakdown of object recognition in the hum ...

In serial dependence (SD), perceptual decisions are biased toward stimuli seen in the recent past. It is believed that SD originates from a perceptual prior that the world is stable and stimuli are correlated in time. Often, however, SD is observed in cond ...

Brain waves, determined by electrical and magnetic brain recordings (e.g., EEG and MEG), and fluctuating behavioral responses, determined by response time or accuracy measures, are frequently taken to support discrete perception. For example, it has been p ...

How do visual skills relate to action video game performance?

Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Oh-Hyeon Choung, Arthur Barakat

It has been claimed that video gamers possess increased perceptual and cognitive skills compared to non-video gamers. Here, we examined to which extent gaming performance in CS:GO (Counter-Strike: Global Offensive) correlates with visual performance.We tes ...

Crowding, the deterioration of object recognition in clutter, is traditionally explained with models that are hierarchical, feedforward and local. These models suggest that a “bottleneck” at the earliest stages of visual processing leads to an irretrievabl ...

Population receptive field size in (un)crowding: to isolate or to combine?

Michael Herzog, Bogdan Draganski, Ayberk Ozkirli, Maya Anna Jastrzebowska

Traditional models posit that visual processing is local and feedforward. In this vein, crowding is explained to be the result of pooling of target and flanker features in early visual areas. Specifically, it has been suggested that when the target and fla ...

Serial dependence under memory load

Michael Herzog, David Pascucci, Ayberk Ozkirli, Gizay Ceylan, Yury Markov, Natalia Tiurina

Perceptual decisions are biased towards previous stimuli, a phenomenon known as serial dependence. However, the mechanisms of this bias are unknown. For example, it is debated whether serial dependence reflects a perceptual bias or interference of prior st ...
