This is a survey of psychophysical studies of motion perception carried out mainly in the last
10 years. It covers a wide range of topics, including the detection and interactions of local …

Although it is known that a moving stimulus appears to dilate in duration compared to a
stationary stimulus, whether subjective motion devoid of stimulus motion is sufficient remains …

To extract meaningful structure from noisy input signals, the human visual-processing
system uses elementary structures, such as contours, to extract more complex informative …

When two random-dot patterns moving in different directions are superimposed, motion
appears coherent or transparent depending on the directional difference. In addition, when a …

When some distractors (old items) precede some others (new items) in an inefficient visual
search task, the search is restricted to new items, and yields a phenomenon termed the …

In two experiments, we demonstrate a misperception of the velocity of a random-dot stimulus
moving in the presence of a static line oriented obliquely to the direction of dot motion. As …

A recent study (H. Takemura & I. Murakami, 2010) showed enhancement of motion detection
sensitivity by an orthogonal induced motion, suggesting that a weak motion component can …

Spatiotemporal context in sensory stimulus has profound effects on neural responses and
perception, and it sometimes affects task difficulty. Recently reported experimental data …

Human judgment is frequently impaired by distracters extending across our field of view.
How we extract relevant information from a spatially restricted region in a complex scene in …
