An extraordinary variety of experimental (eg, flicker, magnetic fields) and clinical (epilepsy,
migraine) conditions give rise to a surprisingly common set of elementary hallucinations …

When cartoonists use speed lines—also called motion streaks—to suggest the speed of a
stationary object, they use form to imply motion. The goal of this study was to investigate the …

Spontaneous pattern formation in cortical activity may have consequences for perception,
but little is known about interactions between sensory-driven and self-organized cortical …

The perception of coherent form configurations in natural scenes relies on the activity of
early visual areas that respond to local orientation cues. Subsequently, high-level visual …

A long-held view of the visual system is that form and motion are independently analysed.
However, there is physiological and psychophysical evidence of early interaction in the …

An Event Related Potential (ERP) component called the Sustained Posterior Negativity
(SPN) is generated by regular visual patterns (eg vertical reflectional symmetry, horizontal …

The holographic weight of evidence model (van der Helm & Leeuwenberg, J Math Psychol,
35, 1991, 151; van der Helm & Leeuwenberg, Psychol Rev, 103, 1996, 429) estimates that …

Background: Visual perceptual learning plays a crucial role in shaping our understanding of
how the human brain integrates visual cues to construct coherent perceptual experiences …

A Glass pattern consists of randomly distributed dot pairs (dipoles) whose orientations are
determined by a geometric transform. To understand how an observer perceives the global …

Glass patterns (GPs) have been widely employed to investigate the mechanisms underlying
processing of global form from locally oriented cues. The current study aimed to …
