  1. Motion Perception:TheoryandExperiments (Pablo J. Velasco) New York University

  2. Outline • Goal: • Local cues: the aperture problem • From local to global: INTEGRATION • Hildreth’s model • An interesting case: the rotating ellipse • Hildreth’s model predictions • Psychophysics experiment • To do…

  3. What we “detect”:The aperture problem • V • VII?

  4. From local to global:INTEGRATION (output): GLOBAL perception of motion Small receptive fields (input): LOCAL information

  5. Hildreth’s model1 a) b) v c) d) v • Finding the velocity field V = V(s) compatible with V Rigidity 1 Hildreth, E. C., The Measurement of Visual Motion, The MIT Press, Cambridge, MA (1983)

  6. Hildreth’s model Assumptions (constraint): Q = Smoothness (Minimize)

  7. Ellipse Rotating • Ambiguous stimuli illusions Change of perception with ellipse eccentricity e Give info about integration of local into global

  8. What does Hildreth’s model predict? VROT Y Y uII uII u u X X VROT VDEF • V : minimum Q QROT QDEF

  9. Experiment description • Goal: for a given e, find l. • Present ellipse (e) rotating (2.5 sec). • Add a bead on surface, rotating with a given ltrial. • Report whether the bead rotates faster or slower than the ellipse.

  10. Experiment description (ahead) e Bead rotation (lagging) ltrial • Psychometric function: l for each e l

  12. To do: • Finish the psychophysics (capturing) • Bayesian model • 2D cues...
