We measured the just-noticeable difference (JND) in orientation variance between two
textures (Figure 1) as we varied the baseline (pedestal) variance present in both textures …

Most studies of texture processing are based on textures in which individual pixel statistics
are varied and spatial correlations are absent (“IID textures”), or textures in which spatial …

Many previous studies have examined the ease with which two spatially adjacent textures
can be segmented. Our goal is to examine the representational system that determines the …

Texture-discimination tasks reveal a pronounced performance asymmetry depending on
which texture represents the foreground region (small area) and which represents the …

A rectifying transformation is required to sense variations in texture contrast. Various
theoretical and practical considerations have inclined researchers to suppose that this …

By defining texture as a global feature attained by integration over the image domain, we
show that texture discrimination can be predicted for a special class of visual textures …

Recent results have shown that texture discrimination is an asymmetrical process; texture A
within texture B may be much easier to detect than texture B within texture A. Two questions …

Chubb et al.[Journal of the Optical Society of America A 11 (1994) 2350] investigated
preattentive discrimination of achromatic textures comprising random mixtures of 17 Weber …

Recent experiments indicate that the segregation of visual structures (“texture
discrimination”) depends not only on the form of texture elements but also on their spacing …

Instantaneous texture discrimination performance was examined for different texture stimuli
to uncover the use of edge-based and region-based texture analysis mechanisms. Textures …
