Binocular functional architecture for detection of contrast-modulated gratings

Abstract: Running head: Binocular summation for contrast modulationCorresponding author: m.a.georgeson@aston.ac.uk Highlights• Detection of contrast modulation (CM) shows full binocular summation • Similarity or dissimilarity of the carriers has no effect on summation • Out-of-phase envelopes don't cancel, but are a bit less detectable than monocular ones • Model: monocular envelope extraction, then contrast-weighted binocular summation • Monocular CM outputs in parallel with binocular ones; largest response wins Abstr… Show more

“…Understanding how the visual system integrates different cues across the eyes, and how the findings for contrast apply to different domains, will require further study. However, we note that the same general framework for signal combination and suppression that we discuss here and in our other work ( Georgeson, Wallis, Meese, & Baker, 2016 ; Meese et al, 2006 ) has been successfully applied to understand binocular combination of cues such as motion ( Maehara, Hess, & Georgeson, 2017 ) and contrast modulation ( Georgeson & Schofield, 2016 ), as well as summation across space ( Meese & Summers, 2007 ), time, and orientation ( Meese & Baker, 2013 ), and also to make accurate predictions regarding neural responses ( Baker & Wade, 2017 ).…”

“…Different from our model that operates in 2D space along the whole signal path, the models proposed in Zhou et al ( 2014 ) and Georgeson and Schofield ( 2016 ) assumed a FRF (filter-rectify-filter) structure for each eye to extract the second-order signal (a vector) from a 2D stimulus representation, and then, the two eyes' second-order signals were contrast-weighted and summed (vector summation) for binocular output.…”

“…The final output was assumed to be the maximum of the three channels. Its monocular channels play a key role in preventing cancellation at the antiphase disparity (180°), providing more reasonable predictions of CM detection data when the CM gratings were 180° out of phase in the two eyes (Georgeson & Schofield, 2016 ). However, when CM phase disparity is 0°–90°, its binocular channel always wins in the maximum operation, making the elaborated model identical to Zhou et al's model.…”
