  2. Contrast effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast_effect

    A contrast effect is the enhancement or diminishment, relative to normal, of perception, cognition or related performance as a result of successive (immediately previous) or simultaneous exposure to a stimulus of lesser or greater value in the same dimension. (Here, normal perception, cognition or performance is that which would be obtained in ...

  3. Chubb illusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chubb_illusion

    The Chubb illusion is similar to another visual illusion, the contrast effect.The contrast effect is an illusion in which the perceived brightness or luminance of an identical central visual target form on a larger uniform background varies to the test subject depending on the ratio of the central form's luminance to that of its background. [4]

  4. MRI contrast agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MRI_contrast_agent

    MRI contrast agents may be administered by injection into the blood stream or orally, depending on the subject of interest. Oral administration is well suited to gastrointestinal tract scans, while intravascular administration proves more useful for most other scans. MRI contrast agents can be classified [2] by their: Chemical composition

  5. Adaptive histogram equalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_histogram...

    Adaptive histogram equalization (AHE) is a computer image processing technique used to improve contrast in images. It differs from ordinary histogram equalization in the respect that the adaptive method computes several histograms, each corresponding to a distinct section of the image, and uses them to redistribute the lightness values of the image.

  6. Contrast transfer function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast_transfer_function

    The effect of the contrast transfer function can be seen in the alternating light and dark rings (Thon rings), which show the relation between contrast and spatial frequency. The contrast transfer function (CTF) mathematically describes how aberrations in a transmission electron microscope (TEM) modify the image of a sample.

  7. Phase-contrast X-ray imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-contrast_X-ray_imaging

    X-ray absorption (left) and differential phase-contrast (right) image of an in-ear headphone obtained with a grating interferometer at 60kVp. Phase-contrast X-ray imaging or phase-sensitive X-ray imaging is a general term for different technical methods that use information concerning changes in the phase of an X-ray beam that passes through an object in order to create its images.

  8. Mach bands - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mach_bands

    The Mach bands effect is due to the spatial high-boost filtering performed by the human visual system on the luminance channel of the image captured by the retina.Mach reported the effect in 1865, conjecturing that filtering is performed in the retina itself, by lateral inhibition among its neurons. [2]

  9. Stroboscopic effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroboscopic_effect

    The contrast threshold function shows that at modulation frequencies near 100 Hz, stroboscopic effect will be visible at relatively low magnitudes of modulation. Although stroboscopic effect in theory is also visible in the frequency range below 100 Hz, in practice visibility of flicker will dominate over stroboscopic effect in the frequency ...
