Wheatstone-Panum极限情况中的深度机制.docVIP

中南民族大学硕士学位论文 Abstract Due to the fact that the human eyes are horizontally separated, the images projected onto the retinas from the three-dimensional (3D) world would, in general, be incompletely asymmetric. Except the location, these asymmetries also include asymmetry in number of features in the two images. In this situation, the originals of depths of the perceptual features is an important theme for stereoscopic vision research. However, even for the simplest case as Wheatstone-Panum’s limiting case, issue of the depths of the perceived two lines was derived from double fusion (that is, both of the double lines in one eye fused wit h the single line in the other eye) or the single fusion (the depth of only one feature originated from binocular fusion of features, while the depth of the other derived from other non-binocular cues) has not been resolved even after over 170 years’ exploration and debating. Over the years, this phenomenon was generally seen as a limiting case of normal stereopsis and if just reduced only one of the features and then stereopsis disappeared. It was generally considered that double fusion happened in the case and the relative depth contributed to the relative disparity in the two fusions. However, in recent years, with the rise of occlude theory, some researchers considered that the Wheatstone-Panum’s limiting case belongs to one of occluding configurations should be seen as one version of Da Vinci stereopsis and the uniqueness constrain was still valid, that is, the single line in one just fused one of the double lines in the other eye, the other monocular line derived its depth from some non-stereopscopic factors such as occlusion, camouflage and vergence error. And in recent years, several experimental evidences based on Wheatstone-type configurations made the issue even more complicated and confusing. It’s hard to understand that under the same condition of small 1 Wheatstone-Panum 极限情况中的深度机制 disparities, why the Panum’s limiting
