An overview of quantitative approaches in Gestalt perception

Michael Herzog

Gestalt psychology is often criticized as lacking quantitative measurements and precise mathematical models. While this is true of the early Gestalt school, today there are many quantitative approaches in Gestalt perception and the special issue of Vision ...

The Honeycomb illusion: Uniform textures not perceived as such

Michael Herzog

We present a series of patterns, in which texture is perceived differently at fixation in comparison to the periphery, such that a physically uniform stimulus yields a nonuniform percept. We call this the Honeycomb illusion, and we discuss it in relation t ...

Mind The Gap

Matthieu Dreyer

The tip leakage vortex (TLV), which develops in the clearance between the blade tip and the casing of axial turbomachines, appears in many industrial applications, such as air transportation, space rockets and hydraulic machines. In the latter, cavitation ...

Release of crowding by pattern completion

Michael Herzog, Gregory Francis, Mauro Manassi

In crowding, target perception deteriorates in the presence of flanking elements. Crowding is classically explained by low-level mechanisms such as pooling or feature substitution. However, we have previously shown that perceptual grouping between the targ ...

Neurological and Robot-Controlled Induction of an Apparition

Olaf Blanke, Hannes Bleuler, Bruno Herbelin, Andrea Serino, Roy Salomon, Giulio Rognini, Lukas Heydrich, Masayuki Hara, Polona Pozeg

Tales of ghosts, wraiths, and other apparitions have been reported in virtually all cultures. The strange sensation that somebody is nearby when no one is actually present and cannot be seen (feeling of a presence, FOP) is a fascinating feat of the human m ...

The Challenge of Connecting the Dots in the BRAIN

Pierre Magistretti, Christian David

The Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies (BRAIN) Initiative has focused scientific attention on the necessary tools to understand the human brain and mind. Here, we outline our collective vision for what we can achieve within a dec ...

Strong Privacy for RFID Systems from Plaintext-Aware Encryption

Serge Vaudenay

Modeling privacy for RFID protocols went through different milestones. One pretty complete model was proposed by Vaudenay at ASIACRYPT 2007. It provides a hierarchy of privacy levels, depending on whether corruption is addressed by the protocol and on whet ...

Does Stanford's induction apply to engineering sciences?

Tao-Chun Lee

Recent works in scientific realism by Stanford (2006) and Chakravartty (2008) have generated interests in the research of a more selective and sophisticated scientific realism. Such debates advance the philosophical development of scientific realism, and a ...

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 ...

Testing dynamical models of vision

Michael Herzog, Gregory Francis, Johannes Rüter

Most models of vision focus either on the spatial or temporal aspects of visual processing and neglect the other component. A variety of studies have shown, however, that spatial and temporal processing cannot easily be separated. The shine-through effect ...
