Nijhuis, S. (author), Van Lammeren, R. (author), Van der Hoeven, F. (author)Exploring the Visual Landscape is about the combination of landscape research and planning, visual perception and Geographic Information Science. It showcases possible ways of getting a grip on themes like: landscape openness, cluttering of the rural landscape, high-rise buildings in relation to cityscape, historic landscapes and motorway...book 2011

Unperceived motor actions of the balance system interfere with the causal attribution of self-motionTisserand, Romain (author), Rasman, Brandon G. (author), Omerovic, Nina (author), Peters, Ryan M. (author), Forbes, P.A. (author), Blouin, Jean Sébastien (author)The instability of human bipedalism demands that the brain accurately senses balancing self-motion and determines whether movements originate from self-generated actions or external disturbances. Here, we challenge the longstanding notion that this process relies on a single representation of the body and world to accurately perceive postural...journal article 2022

Zhao, Y. (author), Stumpel, J.F.H.J. (author), de Ridder, H. (author), Wijntjes, M.W.A. (author)Most studies on the perception of style have used whole scenes/entire paintings; in our study, we isolated a single motif (an apple) to reduce or even eliminate the influence of composition, iconography, and other contextual information. In this article, we empirically address two fundamental questions of the existence (Experiment 1) and...journal article 2023

van Zuijlen, M.J.P. (author), Pont, S.C. (author), Wijntjes, M.W.A. (author)Painters are masters of depiction and have learned to evoke a clear perception of materials and material attributes in a natural, three-dimensional setting, with complex lighting conditions. Furthermore, painters are not constrained by reality, meaning that they could paint materials without exactly following the laws of nature, while still...journal article 2020

Di Cicco, F. (author), Wijntjes, M.W.A. (author), Pont, S.C. (author)To understand the key image features that we use to infer the glossiness of materials, we analyzed the pictorial shortcuts used by 17th century painters to imitate the optical phenomenon of specular reflections when depicting grapes. Gloss perception of painted grapes was determined via a rating experiment. We computed the contrast, blurriness,...journal article 2019

Di Cicco, F. (author), van Zuijlen, M.J.P. (author), Wijntjes, M.W.A. (author), Pont, S.C. (author)Dutch 17th century painters were masters in depicting materials and their properties in a convincing way. Here, we studied the perception of the material signatures and key image features of different depicted fabrics, like satin and velvet. We also tested whether the perception of fabrics depicted in paintings related to local or global cues,...journal article 2021

Zhang, F. (author), de Ridder, H. (author), Barla, Pascal (author), Pont, S.C. (author)We previously presented a systematic optics-based canonical approach to test material-lighting interactions in their full natural ecology, combining canonical material and lighting modes. Analyzing the power of the spherical harmonics components of the lighting allowed us to predict the lighting effects on material perception for generic...journal article 2020
