Research on aging and vision has increased dramatically over the past few decades.
Changes in our visual capacities in later adulthood have the potential to impact our ability to …

When making choices under conditions of perceptual uncertainty, past experience can play
a vital role. However, it can also lead to biases that worsen decisions. Consistent with …

Purpose: The contrast sensitivity function (CSF) provides a detailed description of an
individual's spatial-pattern detection capability. We tested the hypothesis that the CSFs of …

Attention increases acuity, allowing the perceiver to see details that would otherwise be
missed. In addition, for items that the perceiver does actually see, attention changes their …

Perceptual image quality assessment (IQA) uses a computational model to assess the
image quality in a fashion consistent with human opinions. A good IQA model should …

Although the contrast sensitivity function (CSF) is a particularly useful way of characterising
functional vision, its measurement relies on observers making reliable perceptual reports …

The effects of illumination and shooting distance on crack image recognition were
investigated by examining cracks in images taken with a camera. In order to examine the …

Sharks have long been described as having 'poor'vision. They are cone monochromats and
anatomical estimates suggest they have low spatial resolution. However, there are no direct …

Odors provide information regarding the chemical properties of potential environment
hazards. Some of this information may be disgust-related (eg, organic decay), whereas other …

Dry form of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) constitutes 90% of AMD cases, and it
is characterized by the formation of drusen under the retina and the slow breakdown of the …
