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.
