Due to its inherent neural delays, the visual system has an outdated access to sensory
information about the current position of moving objects. In contrast, living organisms are …

Our daily endeavors occur in a complex visual environment, whose intrinsic variability
challenges the way we integrate information to make decisions. By processing myriads of …

Motion detection represents one of the critical tasks of the visual system and has motivated a
large body of research. However, it remains unclear precisely why the response of retinal …

Interacting with the natural environment leads to complex stimulations of our senses. Here
we focus on the estimation of visual speed, a critical source of information for the survival of …

A common practice to account for psychophysical biases in vision is to frame them as
consequences of a dynamic process relying on optimal inference with respect to a …

Texture modeling is a very useful tool in image analysis. This model can be used in texture
segmentation, denoising or texture synthesis. In this work, alpha-stable distribution has been …

Natural images follow statistics inherited by the structure of our physical (visual)
environment. In particular, a prominent facet of this structure is that images can be described …

Motion detection represents one of the critical tasks of the visual system and has motivated a
large body of research. However, is remain unclear precisely why the response of retinal …

Le but de cette these est de proposer une modélisation mathématique des stimulations
visuelles afin d'analyser finement des données expérimentales en psychophysique et en …

The goal of this thesis is to propose a mathematical model of visual stimulations in order to
finely analyze experimental data in psychophysics and electrophysiology. More precisely, it …
