texture. Luminance contrast sensitivity thresholds are often poorly characterised for …

It has long been known that the visually perceived positions of objects, in short visual space,
are distorted with respect to the physical positions. On the basis of the observation that …

From the principle that subjective dissimilarity between 2 stimuli is determined by their ratio,
Fechner derives his logarithmic law in 2 ways. In one derivation, ignored and forgotten in …
