stimupy.papers.modelfest

Modelfest dataset from Carney et al (1999) https://doi.org/10.1117/12.348473

This module reproduces all of the stimuli from the Modelfest dataset prior to the spatiotemporal extension as described in Carney et al (1999) but normalized between 0 and 1. More information on Modelfest can be found here: https://www.visionscience.com/data/modelfest/

Each stimulus is provided by a separate function, a full list can be found as stimupy.papers.modelfest.__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/modelfest.py

__all__(list of str)

that are exported by this module when executing

>>> from stimupy.papers.modelfest import *
