QualiaNet: An Experience-Before-Inference Network
Paul Linton
Human 3D vision involves two distinct stages: an Experience Module, where stereo depth is extracted relative to fixation, and an Inference Module, where this experience is interpre…
Linton Stereo Illusion: Response on Johnston (1991)
Paul Linton
In (Linton, 2024) I present a new illusion (the 'Linton Stereo Illusion') that challenges our understanding of stereo vision. A vision scientist has shared their own analysis of th…
Linton Stereo Illusion

We present a new illusion that challenges our understanding of stereo vision. The illusion consists of a larger circle at 50cm, and smaller circle in front of it at 40cm, with cons…
Neither hype nor gloom do DNNs justice
Felix A. Wichmann, Simon Kornblith, Robert Geirhos
Neither the hype exemplified in some exaggerated claims about deep neural networks (DNNs), nor the gloom expressed by Bowers et al. do DNNs as models in vision science justice: DNN…
Would Gaze-Contingent Rendering Improve Depth Perception in Virtual and Augmented Reality?
Paul Linton
Near distances are overestimated in virtual reality, and far distances are underestimated, but an explanation for these distortions remains elusive. One potential concern is that w…
