Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

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 ...

A (fascinating) litmus test for human retino- vs. non-retinotopic processing

Michael Herzog, Thomas Otto, Marco Boi

In human vision, the optics of the eye map neighboring points of the environment onto neighboring photoreceptors in the retina. This retinotopic encoding principle is preserved in the early visual areas. Under normal viewing conditions, due to the motion o ...

Schizophrenic and bipolar patients reveal identical backward masking deficits

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili

In visual backward masking, a target is followed by a blank screen (ISI) and, then, a mask which deteriorates target processing. Schizophrenic patients show strong but complex processing deficits in visual masking compared to healthy controls. There is evi ...

Figural grouping affects contextual modulation in low level vision

Michael Herzog, Bilge Sayim

Embedding a target within contextual elements can influence performance in visual tasks. For example, when a vernier is flanked by two lines, discrimination performance deteriorates strongly compared to unflanked presentation. This contextual modulation is ...

Non-retinotopic feature integration in human vision

Thomas Otto

How features are attributed to objects is one of the most puzzling issues in the neurosciences. According to a deeply entrenched view, the analysis of features is spatially localized and, consequently, features are perceived according to the locations wher ...

Visual Attention on the Sphere

Heinz Hügli, Iva Bogdanova Vandergheynst, Alexandre Bur

Human visual system makes an extensive use of visual attention in order to select the most relevant information and speed-up the vision process. Inspired by visual attention, several computer models have been developped and many computer vision application ...

Modeling spatial and temporal aspects of visual backward masking

Michael Herzog, Wulfram Gerstner, Gediminas Luksys

Visual backward masking is a versatile tool for understanding principles and limitations of visual information processing in the human brain. However, the mechanisms underlying masking are still poorly understood. In the current contribution, the authors s ...

Spatial processing and visual backward masking

Michael Herzog

Most theories of visual masking focus primarily on the temporal aspects of visual information processing, strongly neglecting spatial factors. In recent years, however, we have shown that this position is not tenable. Spatial aspects cannot be neglected in ...

The flight path of the phoenix--the visible trace of invisible elements in human vision

Michael Herzog, Thomas Otto

How features are attributed to objects is one of the most puzzling issues in the neurosciences. A deeply entrenched view is that features are perceived at the locations where they are presented. Here, we show that features in motion displays can be systema ...
