Brightness perception: one simple model explaines most if not all effects

Few models can explain Mach bands (Pessoa, 1996 Vision Research 36 3205-3227) . Our own employs multiscale line and edge coding by simple and complex cells. Lines are interpreted by Gaussian functions, edges by bipolar, Gaussian-truncated errorfunctions. Widths of these functions are coupled to the...

Resumo:Few models can explain Mach bands (Pessoa, 1996 Vision Research 36 3205-3227) . Our own employs multiscale line and edge coding by simple and complex cells. Lines are interpreted by Gaussian functions, edges by bipolar, Gaussian-truncated errorfunctions. Widths of these functions are coupled to the scales of the underlying cells and the amplitudes are determined by their responses.
