The visual system must extract from the light that falls on the
retina meaningful information about what is where in our
environment. At an early stage it analyzes the incoming sensory
data along many dimensions of pattern vision, e.g. spatial
frequency, orientation, velocity, eye-of-origin. Visual Pattern
Analyzers provides a definitive account of current knowledge about
this stage of visual processing. Nowhere else can such a
comprehensive summarty of the lower level pattern analyzers be
found. The book's emphasis is on psychophysical experiments
measuring the detection and identification of near-threshold
patterns -- and the mathematical models, such as multidimensional
signal-detection theory, used to draw inferences from such
experimental results -- but neurophysiological evidence is
presented and compared critically to the psychophysical evidence.
Introductory material on psychophysical methods, signal detection
theory, and the mathematics of Fourier analysis is given in order
to make the book more accessible to all who are interested in the
lower or higher levels of visual perception. This volume will be of
great value to researchers and graduate students in the fields of
vision and perception. Within the scientific community there is
wide interest in the visual system, and the book will be of use to
investigators in many fields, including psychophysics,
neuroscience, ophthalmology and optics, computer science, and
cognitive and experimental psychology.
