A time-critical adaptive approach for visualizing natural scenes on different devices.

ABSTRACT: To automatically adapt to various hardware and software environments on different devices, this paper presents a time-critical adaptive approach for visualizing natural scenes. In this method, a simplified expression of a tree model is used for different devices. The best rendering scheme is intelligently selected to generate a particular scene by estimating the rendering time of trees based on their visual importance. Therefore, this approach can ensure the reality of natural scenes while maintaining a constant frame rate for their interactive display. To verify its effectiveness and flexibility, this method is applied in different devices, such as a desktop computer, laptop, iPad and smart phone. Applications show that the method proposed in this paper can not only adapt to devices with different computing abilities and system resources very well but can also achieve rather good visual realism and a constant frame rate for natural scenes.

Project description:Key pointsResponses to natural scenes are the business of the retina. We find primate ganglion cell responses to such scenes consistent with those to simpler stimuli. A biophysical model confirmed this and predicted ganglion cell responses with close to retinal reliability. Primate ganglion cell responses to natural scenes were driven by temporal variations in colour and luminance over the receptive field centre caused by eye movements, and little influenced by interaction of centre and surround with structure in the scene. We discuss implications in the context of efficient coding of the visual environment. Much information in a higher spatiotemporal frequency band is concentrated in the magnocellular pathway.AbstractResponses of visual neurons to natural scenes provide a link between classical descriptions of receptive field structure and visual perception of the natural environment. A natural scene video with a movement pattern resembling that of primate eye movements was used to evoke responses from macaque ganglion cells. Cell responses were well described through known properties of cell receptive fields. Different analyses converge to show that responses primarily derive from the temporal pattern of stimulation derived from eye movements, rather than spatial receptive field structure beyond centre size and position. This was confirmed using a model that predicted ganglion cell responses close to retinal reliability, with only a small contribution of the surround relative to the centre. We also found that the spatiotemporal spectrum of the stimulus is modified in ganglion cell responses, and this can reduce redundancy in the retinal signal. This is more pronounced in the magnocellular pathway, which is much better suited to transmit the detailed structure of natural scenes than the parvocellular pathway. Whitening is less important for chromatic channels. Taken together, this shows how a complex interplay across space, time and spectral content sculpts ganglion cell responses.
