  • Susceptibility to Size Visual Illusions in a Non-Primate Mammal (Equus Caballus)
    animals Brief Report Susceptibility to Size Visual Illusions in a Non-Primate Mammal (Equus caballus) Anansi Cappellato 1, Maria Elena Miletto Petrazzini 2, Angelo Bisazza 1,3, Marco Dadda 1 and Christian Agrillo 1,3,* 1 Department of General Psychology, University of Padova, 35131 Padova, Italy; [email protected] (A.C.); [email protected] (A.B.); [email protected] (M.D.) 2 Department of Biomedical Sciences, University of Padova, Via Bassi 58, 35131 Padova, Italy; [email protected] 3 Padua Neuroscience Center, University of Padova, Via Orus 2, 35131 Padova, Italy * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 30 July 2020; Accepted: 13 September 2020; Published: 17 September 2020 Simple Summary: Visual illusions are commonly used by researchers as non-invasive tools to investigate the perceptual mechanisms underlying vision among animals. The assumption is that, if a species perceives the illusion like humans do, they probably share the same perceptual mechanisms. Here, we investigated whether horses are susceptible to the Muller-Lyer illusion, a size illusion in which two same-sized lines appear to be different in length because of the spatial arrangements of arrowheads presented at the two ends of the lines. Horses showed a human-like perception of this illusion, meaning that they may display similar perceptual mechanisms underlying the size estimation of objects. Abstract: The perception of different size illusions is believed to be determined by size-scaling mechanisms that lead individuals to extrapolate inappropriate 3D information from 2D stimuli. The Muller-Lyer illusion represents one of the most investigated size illusions. Studies on non-human primates showed a human-like perception of this illusory pattern.

  • Vision Biological Vision and Image Processing
    Vision Stefano Ferrari Universit`adegli Studi di Milano [email protected] Methods for Image processing academic year 2016–2017 Biological vision and image processing I The human visual perception results from a chain of processing tasks, often cooperating with other perceptual activities. I Image processing is a discipline (mainly) based on mathematical and statistical concepts, with constraints imposed by the image acquisition technology. I The study of the human vision is useful for more than one reason: I the output of some processes is targeted for the vision of a human user; I the operation of the organs devoted to the acquisition and perception of images can inspire the development of similar artificial devices; moreover, the performance of image processing algorithms have to be compared; I some known mulfunctioning of the biological apparatus do not affect the image processing devices.

Distribution of the receptors on the retina On the retina, two kinds of receptors can be found: I cones; I rods. I Cones: I about 7 millions; I perception of details and rapid changes; I sensitive to colors; I sensitive in high illuminance conditions (photopic vision). I Rods: I about 100 millions; I provide a large scale vision; I sensitive in low illuminance conditions (scotopic vision). Stefano Ferrari| Methods for Image processing| a.a.

  • Visual Perception Glossary
    Visual Perception Glossary Amodal perception The part of an object that is not visible because occlu- ded can be amodally perceived. Amodal perception is different and one step removed from modal percepti- on of real or illusory contours. Apparent motion When an object is presented at two different locati- ons after a brief time interval observers perceive mo- tion. The fi rst empirical investigation was carried out by Sigmund Exner . His aim, as well as the subsequent work by Max Wertheimer , was in establishing that motion was a basic sensation. Attention Refers to the selective processing of some aspect of information, while ignoring other information. The sudden onset of a stimulus can capture attention, but people can also exert some control on where they di- rect their attention. Bi-stable stimulus A particular stimulus that can produce two percepts over time, even though it is unchanged as a stimulus. An example is the Necker cube . Brightness Brightness refers to perception of how much light is coming from a given surface or object. A brighter objects refl ects more light than a less bright object. However perception of brightness is not fully deter- mined by luminance (see Illusory contours). 192 Visual Perception Glossary Cerebral lobe The cerebral cortex of the human brain is divided into four main lobes. Frontal (at the front), occipital (at the back), temporal (on the sides) and parietal (at the top). Consciousness Sorry this is too hard, your guess is as good as mine. Cortex The cortex is the outer layer of the brain . In most mammals the cortex is folded and this allows the surface to have a greater area given in the confi ned space available inside the skull.

  • The Blind Spot
    Sight (Vision) The Blind Spot One of the most dramatic experiments to perform is the demonstration of the blind spot. The blind spot is the area on the retina without receptors that respond to light. Therefore an image that falls on this region will NOT be seen. It is in this region that the optic nerve exits the eye on its way to the brain. To find your blind spot, look at the image below or draw it on a piece of paper: To draw the blind spot tester on a piece of paper, make a small dot on the left side separated by about 6-8 inches from a small + on the right side. Close your right eye. Hold the image (or place your head from the computer monitor) about 20 inches away. With your left eye, look at the +. Slowly bring the image (or move your head) closer while looking at the +. At a certain distance, the dot will disappear from sight...this is when the dot falls on the blind spot of your retina. Reverse the process. Close your left eye and look at the dot with your right eye. Move the image slowly closer to you and the + should disappear. Here are some more images that will help you find your blind spot. For this image, close your right eye. With your left eye, look at the red circle. Slowly move your head closer to the image. At a certain distance, the blue line will not look broken!! This is because your brain is "filling in" the missing information.

This is a world of objects, most of which have pretty fixed properties. The clothes you are currently are always the same color. Yes, children grow, but they tend to grow so slowly that we do not directly observe their growth but can only become aware of growth by looking back across time. Yet, the visual system must use the visual stimulus that enters the eye. The light that comes from a given object may or may not be as constant as the object is. Take the example of a person walking away from you. From Chapter 4, in our discussion of visual angle, it became apparent that as an object gets farther from the eye, the visual angle of that object gets smaller (refer back to Interactive Illustration 4.x, Visual Angle).

In examining the person with disease, we gain wisdom about life.” (Oliver W. Sacks) I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all the patients who have devoted so much of their time and energy to participate in this project. They allowed this study to be accomplished. Despite all the challenges they were faced with, they were willing to contribute in research so that it can assist others in the future. While spending their valuable time and effort, participating in this project, they taught me more than simply the clinical matters reported in this thesis, but also the important qualities in life: courage, persistence, patience, enthusiasm and kindness. Additionally, my sincere thanks to those who contributed as control participants as well as those who helped out in the pilot phase of our project. I am deeply thankful to my supervisor, Prof. Bruno Laeng. You have been endlessly supportive throughout this project. Thanks to your initiative and perseverance to pursuit new ideas we have arrived at the present findings. I am grateful for your valuable advice, our fruitful discussions, and your guidance throughout this journey.

  • Systematic Structural Analysis of Optical Illusion Art and Application in Graphic Design with Autism Spectrum Disorder
    SYSTEMATIC STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF OPTICAL ILLUSION ART AND APPLICATION IN GRAPHIC DESIGN WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER RELATORE ：PROF. ARCH. PH.D ANNA MAROTTA CORRELATORE ： ARCH. PH.D ROSSANA NETTI STUDENT：LI HAORAN SYSTEMATIC STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF OPTICAL ILLUSION ARTAND APPLICATION IN GRAPHIC DESIGN WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER Abstract To explore the application of optical illusion in different fields, taking M.C. Escher's painting as an example, systematic analysis of optical illusion, Gestalt psychology, and Geometry are performed. Then, from the geometric point of view, to analyze the optical illusion formation model. Taking Fraser Spiral Illusion and Herring Illusion as examples, through the dismantling and combination of Fraser Spiral Illusion and the analysis of the spiral angle, and Herring Illusion tilt angle analysis, the structure of the graph is further explored. This results in a geometric drawing method that optimizes the optical illusion effect and applies this method to graphic design combined with the autism spectrum. Therefore, this project will remind the ordinary people and designers to pay attention to the universal design while also paying attention to extreme people through the combination of graphic design and optical illusion. That is, focus on autism spectrum disorder (ASD), provide more inclusive design and try their best to provide autism spectrum with the deserving autonomy and independence in public space. Meanwhile, making the autism spectrum “integrate” into the general public’s environment so that their abilities match the environment and improve self-care capabilities. Keywords Autism Spectrum Disorder, Inclusive Design, Graphic Design, Gestalt Psychology, Optical Illusion, Systemic Perspective Introduction 1. Systematic analysis of the content of the thesis 1.1 The purpose and the significance of study 1.1.1 Methodology with system diagram framework 2.
