Visual peeception




The contrast sensitivity function shows how our sensitivity to contrasts is affected by spatial frequency. You can test it using gratings of alternating light and darker shade. Ian Goodfellow has this neat observation:



By looking at this image, you can see how sensitive your own eyes are to contrast at different frequencies (taller apparent peaks=more sensitivity at that frequency). It's like a graph that is made by perceiving the graph itself. h/t @catherineols http://fourier.eng.hmc.edu/e180/lectures/v1/node11.html /.../
