A machine to store and process capture information

24
Q

True or false the brain has limited cognitive capacities

A

True

25
Q

Visual Illusion

A

The result of interpretations of the retina image by our brain influenced by prior knowledge and experience

26
Q

Visual Perception

A

Based on sampled visual information

27
Q

How do we decide what to “see”?

A

Task relevance, decision making process is optimized and hardwired in our brain

28
Q

Hardwired or learned interpretation of visual images

29
Q

What is our brain better at noticing, differences in luminance of absolute value of luminance?

A

Difference in luminance

30
Q

Consequences in Visualization

A

Errors in reading quantitative measures reflected in images, sensitive to object rendering, edge enhancement

31
Q

True or False: Color can be affected by surrounding colors

A

True

32
Q

Opponent Process Theory

Example of physical action in optimization of resource allocation

A

Head movement

45
Q

Example of cognitive action in optimization of resource allocation
