Research into the Dynamic Nature of the Human Fovea→Cortex Systems with Intermittent and Modulated Light I Attenuation Characteristics with White and Colored Light
Abstract
A generally known method for the dynamic investigation of any linear system is recalled to mind. Applied to the visual organ with sinusoidally modulated light, the dynamic nature of the system fovea→brightness perception is embodied in attenuation characteristics, by plotting the ratio output amplitude over input amplitude against frequency at constant mean luminance. This manner of investigation, first applied in previous papers with white light, is expanded over a greater part of the range of cone vision and is continued with colored light. The existing theories on flicker fusion provide no explanation for the shape of the attenuation characteristics obtained with the experiments and calculated from investigations of other authors.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
