Crowding, the inability to recognize objects in clutter, sets a fundamental limit on conscious
visual perception and object recognition throughout most of the visual field. Despite how …

Crowding, generally defined as the deleterious influence of nearby contours on visual
discrimination, is ubiquitous in spatial vision. Crowding impairs the ability to recognize …

Visual crowding refers to a phenomenon whereby objects that appear in the periphery of the
visual field are more difficult to identify when embedded within clutter. Pooling models assert …

In everyday life, we are constantly surrounded by complex and cluttered scenes. In such
cluttered environments, visual perception is primarily limited by crowding, the deleterious …

Crowding has become a hot topic in vision research, and some fundamentals are now
widely agreed upon. For the classical crowding task, one would likely agree with the …

Perception of peripherally viewed shapes is impaired when surrounded by similar shapes.
This phenomenon is commonly referred to as “crowding”. Although studied extensively for …

Visual perception is dramatically impaired when a peripheral target is embedded within
clutter, a phenomenon known as visual crowding. Despite decades of study, the …

Visual crowding refers to phenomena in which the perception of a peripheral target is
strongly affected by nearby flankers. Observers often report seeing the stimuli as “jumbled …

In crowding, the perception of a target strongly deteriorates when neighboring elements are
presented. Crowding is usually assumed to have the following characteristics.(a) Crowding …

A set of phenomena known as crowding reveal peripheral vision's vulnerability in the face of
clutter. Crowding is important both because of its ubiquity, making it relevant for many real …
