Stimuli from Robinson, Hammon & de Sa (2007) https://doi.org/10.1016/j.visres.2007.02.017

This module reproduces all of the stimuli used by Robinson, Hammon & de Sa (2007) as they were provided to the model described in that paper.

Each stimulus is provided by a separate function, a full list can be found as stimupy.papers.RHS2007.__all__

The output of each of these functions is a stimulus dictionary.

For a visual representation of all the stimuli and their mask, simply run this module as a script:

$ python stimuli/papers/RHS2007.py
