  2. Form perception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Form_perception

    Form perception is the recognition of visual elements of objects, specifically those to do with shapes, patterns and previously identified important characteristics. An object is perceived by the retina as a two-dimensional image, [1] but the image can vary for the same object in terms of the context with which it is viewed, the apparent size of the object, the angle from which it is viewed ...

  3. Phi phenomenon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phi_phenomenon

    Reverse phi illusion is the kind of phi phenomenon that fades or dissolves from its positive direction to the displaced negative, so that the apparent motion human perceive is opposite to the actual physical displacement. Reverse phi illusion is often followed by black and white patterns.

  4. Sense data - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sense_data

    The theory of sense data is a view in the philosophy of perception, popularly held in the early 20th century by philosophers such as Bertrand Russell, C. D. Broad, H. H. Price, A. J. Ayer, and G. E. Moore. Sense data are taken to be mind-dependent objects whose existence and properties are known directly to us in perception.

  5. Integrated information theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_information_theory

    Phi; the symbol used for integrated information. Integrated information theory (IIT) proposes a mathematical model for the consciousness of a system. It comprises a framework ultimately intended to explain why some physical systems (such as human brains) are conscious, [1] and to be capable of providing a concrete inference about whether any physical system is conscious, to what degree, and ...

  6. Golden ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_ratio

    Studies by psychologists, starting with Gustav Fechner c. 1876, [104] have been devised to test the idea that the golden ratio plays a role in human perception of beauty. While Fechner found a preference for rectangle ratios centered on the golden ratio, later attempts to carefully test such a hypothesis have been, at best, inconclusive. [105] [74]

  7. Perception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perception

    Perception (from Latin perceptio 'gathering, receiving') is the organization, identification, and interpretation of sensory information in order to represent and understand the presented information or environment. [2] All perception involves signals that go through the nervous system, which in turn result from physical or chemical stimulation ...

  8. Motion perception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_perception

    Motion perception is the process of inferring the speed and direction of elements in a scene based on visual, vestibular and proprioceptive inputs. Although this process appears straightforward to most observers, it has proven to be a difficult problem from a computational perspective, and difficult to explain in terms of neural processing.

  9. Inattentional blindness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inattentional_blindness

    The following criteria are required to classify an event as an inattentional blindness episode: 1) the observer must fail to notice a visual object or event, 2) the object or event must be fully visible, 3) observers must be able to readily identify the object if they are consciously perceiving it, [3] and 4) the event must be unexpected and the failure to see the object or event must be due ...
