Neural Modeling
- Figure-ground segregation by multiscale sampling: the suggested model relies on fast brain inter-areal connections
- Motion integration by multiscale sampling: a solution to the aperture problem
- Three cortical models to approach brightness-related precepts, with Bo Cao
- A cortical model of dynamical figure-ground segregation, and border-ownership with Oliver Layton, this model detects the kinetic edge and assigns it to the camouflaged surface it belongs to
- A cortical model of figure-ground segregation, and border-ownership for static scenes with Oliver Layton
- An approach using Differential Geometry to introduce the 3D aperture problem for the phenomena which cannot be explained by the classical aperture problem
- Neural modeling: dynamical Systems approach
- Aperture problem based model of measuring perceptive fields
Visual Psychophysics
- Psychophysical testing of the 3D aperture problem model: further evidence for 3D rather than classic aperture problem
- The actual RTLI illusion, that Simone put together, and that encouraged us to measure perceptive fields
- Induced motion with emphasis on the frame of reference with Jasmin Léveillé
- Induced motion and motion assimilation in depth with Jasmin Léveillé
Parkinson’s Disease & Psychophysics
- Effect of Visual Cues on the Resolution of Perceptual Ambiguity in Parkinson’s Disease and Normal Aging
- Bistable perception in normal aging: perceptual reversibility and its relation to cognition
Electrophysiology
- Perceptions of shadow and occlusion, rely on the sign-of-contrast at edge-crossings, which raises the question if end-stopping in V1 is sensitive to contrast?
