Studies of the Effect of Image Degradation and Recombination
Abstract
The second year of this grant has been very productive. We completed the major study that was underway last year and have moved on to complete two other major programmatic studies. The ongoing study that is now complete was the one in which we explored the effects of noise, Fourier filtering, reduced acuity (by means of blocking) and combinations thereof in a discrimination task. Ten experiments were carried out in this series. A publication on this work has been submitted for publication and is now being reviewed. From there we went on to consider the combination of degradations by the visual system rather than by means of the computer. In this study degraded images were combined with dichoptic viewing. A manuscript describing this work has also been submitted and is under review, We then undertook to study the effect of combinations of degradations on a recognition task. That work has also been completed and is in the process of being analyzed. The first paper submitted from our laboratory on the psychophysical foundations of night vision devices has been accepted for publication.
