Abstract
In this paper we report on an analysis of visual stimuli models by a wavelet function. The human visual process is compared with a wavelet transform. Wavelet functions have been built from the Haar function. Two stimuli were analyzed by a wavelet function: a sinusoidal luminance stimulus (spatial frequency ƒ) and a luminance-varying regular stimulus. The theoretical results obtained from the wavelet transform are compared with the physiological results of R. Blake [in Frontiers in Visual Science, S. J. Cool and E. L. Smith, eds. (Springer-Verlag, Berlin, 1978), pp. 209-219] and K. K. De Valois [in Frontiers in Science, S. J. Cool and E. L. Smith, eds. (Springer-Verlag, Berlin, 1978), pp. 277-285]. A theoretical curve conforms to the shape of the contrast sensitivity curves. Hence it can be concluded that the wavelet transform is a new approach to human visual mechanisms.
