Visual feature integration: how long can it last?

Michael Herzog, Leila Drissi Daoudi - Kleinbauer, Lukas Vogelsang

Spatiotemporal features are integrated along motion trajectories. For example, when a central line is followed by pairs of flanking lines, two motion streams diverging from the center are perceived. The central line is rendered invisible by the subsequent ...
