Contrast sensitivity and discrimination of complex scenes
<23> Originality: The paper discusses cutting-edge research, funded by the UK MoD, which combines imaging science, computer vision and visual science expertise to experimentally derive, for the first time, human contrast sensitivity functions and discrimination functions directly from displayed digital images of natural scenes.
Significance: the paper proposes a novel experimental procedure for the derivation of human contrast sensitivity functions and furthers existing mathematical models for their modelling. Models will be incorporated in the design of army goggle and display devices.
Rigour: Mathematical analyses support all findings. Results are published in an internationally leading conference in imaging, peer-reviewed proceedings.
