Description
Visual Perception from a Computer Graphics Perspective provides an introduction to human visual perception suitable for readers studying or working in the fields of computer graphics and visualisation, cognitive science, and visual neuroscience. It focuses on how computer graphics images are generated, rather than solely on the organisation of the visual system itself; therefore, the text provides a more direct tie between image generation and the resulting perceptual phenomena.
It covers such topics as the perception of material properties, illumination, the perception of pictorial space, image statistics, perception and action, and spatial cognition.
