Neural correlates for perception of 3d surface orientation from texture

... Similar to this neuron, 77% (27/35) of texture gradient–sensitive neurons showed selectivity to a 3D surface orientation defined by disparity gradients of RDS. In these neurons, orientation selectivity was significantly correlated (r ⫽ 0.566; P ⬍ 0.001) between dot-TP and RDS (Fig. 2B, bottom row). ...

Its underlying mechanisms are so effective that, for decades, speech perception was considered by many researchers to be an auditory function only. That is, the contribution of vision went almost unnoted. ...

Psychophysics

Psychophysics quantitatively investigates the relationship between physical stimuli and the sensations and perceptions they affect. Psychophysics has been described as ""the scientific study of the relation between stimulus and sensation"" or, more completely, as ""the analysis of perceptual processes by studying the effect on a subject's experience or behaviour of systematically varying the properties of a stimulus along one or more physical dimensions"".Psychophysics also refers to a general class of methods that can be applied to study a perceptual system. Modern applications rely heavily on threshold measurement, ideal observer analysis, and signal detection theory.Psychophysics has widespread and important practical applications. For example, in the study of digital signal processing, psychophysics has informed the development of models and methods of lossy compression. These models explain why humans perceive very little loss of signal quality when audio and video signals are formatted using lossy compression.
