Internal perceptual system noise and redundancy in simultaneous inputs in form identification

Abstract

Identification accuracy of forms was studied as a function of the number of simultaneous occurrences of the form on different foveal locations. A model for computing perceptual independence was presented and the data suggest that at a given moment in time internal noise for different elements in the visual perceptual system, represented by different foveal locations, is uncorrelated.
