摘要
We investigate the roles of spatial frequency content, flicker and higher-order elements of form ("features") in the generation of motion percepts. These cues are separated through the use of dynamic visual stimuli based on stochastic textures. Flicker alone and spatial frequency content alone suffice to generate a strong motion percept, but higher-order elements of form alone generate a much weaker motion percept. Thus, even for achromatic stimuli, all pattern information is not equally available for motion processing. Furthermore, higher-order form information, which by itself does not provide a strong cue to motion, is shown to interact with other visual information to facilitate determination of direction of motion. © 1990.
