MODVIS Workshop

The perception of a stimulus is largely determined by its surrounding. Examples abound from color (Land and McCann, 1971), disparity (Westheimer, 1986) and motion induction (Anstis and Casco, 2006) to orientation tilt effects (O’Toole and Wenderoth, 1976). Some of these phenomena have been studied individually using monkey neurophysiology techniques. In these experiments, a center stimulus is typically used to probe a cell’s classical “center” receptive field (cRF), whose activity is then modulated by an annular “surround” (extra-cRF) stimulus. While this center-surround integration (CSI) has been well characterized, a theoretical framework which unifies these different phenomena across visual modalities is lacking. …
