Natural scene statistics predict how humans pool information across space in surface tilt estimation
Fig 12
Pooling sizes that maximize groundtruth tilt estimation performance vs. pooling sizes that maximize the prediction of human performance.
Pooling diameters that maximize estimation performance predict those that maximize the prediction of human performance. Each data point represents the diameter that maximizes performance for a different groundtruth tilt at the target location (cf. Fig 11). The actual sizes of the pooling regions that maximize estimation performance are similar to the sizes that maximize the prediction of human performance.
