Motion perception: From detection to interpretation

S Nishida, T Kawabe, M Sawayama… - Annual review of vision …, 2018 - annualreviews.org
Visual motion processing can be conceptually divided into two levels. In the lower level,
local motion signals are detected by spatiotemporal-frequency-selective sensors and then …

Phase reduction of waves, patterns, and oscillations subject to spatially extended noise

J MacLaurin - SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 2023 - SIAM
In this paper we present a framework in which one can rigorously study the effect of spatio-
temporal noise on traveling waves, stationary patterns, and oscillations that are invariant …

Local motion pooling is continuous, global motion perception is discrete.

ML Green, MS Pratte - Journal of Experimental Psychology …, 2022 - psycnet.apa.org
Perceiving the motion of an object is thought to involve two stages: Local motion energy is
measured at each point in space, and these signals are then pooled across space to build …

Wandering bumps in a stochastic neural field: A variational approach

JN MacLaurin, PC Bressloff - Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena, 2020 - Elsevier
We develop a generalized variational method for analyzing wandering bumps in a
stochastic neural field model defined on some domain U. For concreteness, we take U= S 1 …

Speed estimation for visual tracking emerges dynamically from nonlinear frequency interactions

AI Meso, N Gekas, P Mamassian, GS Masson - Eneuro, 2022 - eneuro.org
Sensing the movement of fast objects within our visual environments is essential for
controlling actions. It requires online estimation of motion direction and speed. We probed …

Dynamic divisive normalization circuits explain and predict change detection in monkey area MT

UA Ernst, X Chen, L Bohnenkamp… - PLoS computational …, 2021 - journals.plos.org
Sudden changes in visual scenes often indicate important events for behavior. For their
quick and reliable detection, the brain must be capable to process these changes as …

A dynamical model of visual motion processing for arbitrary stimuli including type II plaids

Y Korai, K Miura - Neural Networks, 2023 - Elsevier
To explore the operating principle of visual motion processing in the brain underlying
perception and eye movements, we model the information processing of velocity estimate of …

Evidence of inverted gravity‐driven variation in predictive sensorimotor function

AI Meso, RL De Vai, A Mahabeer… - European Journal of …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
We move our eyes to place the fovea into the part of a viewed scene currently of interest.
Recent evidence suggests that each human has signature patterns of eye movements like …

Metastability of waves and patterns subject to spatially-extended noise

J MacLaurin - arXiv preprint arXiv:2006.12627, 2020 - arxiv.org
In this paper we present a general framework in which one can rigorously study the effect of
spatio-temporal noise on traveling waves, stationary patterns and oscillations that are …
