Description
The proceedings of a workshop held in Amsterdam in August 1984 devoted to the application of quantitative methods of physics and engineering to the study of vision. The papers presented summarize the current position with regard to three research questions: how the visual system segregates an object from the background; how two-dimensional representation encodes three-dimensional information and how visual information is physically encoded in the brain.
