Second-order system; Its role and mechanism

Abstract:Human vision presumably involves two types of motion system. One (first-order system) extracts motion information from local spatiotemporal energy in the retinal luminance distribution, while the other (second-order system) extracts motion information in the absence of appropriate energy in the luminance distribution. My work carried out in ATR has been concerning with the role and the mechanism of second-order system.
