The local chromatic contrast between surfaces in a visual scene plays an important role in theories of color perception. Our studies of cerebral achromatopsia suggest that this contrast signal is computed independently of the more complex processes s...

Attentional capture by colour and motion in cerebral achromatopsia (2003)
Journal Article
Cole, G., Heywood, C., Kentridge, R., Fairholm, I., & Cowey, A. (2003). Attentional capture by colour and motion in cerebral achromatopsia. Neuropsychologia, 41(13), 1837-1846. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0028-3932%2803%2900184-2

Cerebral achromatopsia is a rare condition in which damage to the ventromedial occipital area of the cortex results in the loss of colour experience. Nevertheless, cortically colour-blind patients can still use wavelength variation to perceive form a... Read More about Attentional capture by colour and motion in cerebral achromatopsia.

Detectability of onsets versus offsets in the change detection paradigm (2003)
Journal Article
Cole, G., Kentridge, R., Gellatly, A., & Heywood, C. (2003). Detectability of onsets versus offsets in the change detection paradigm. Journal of Vision, 3(1), 22-31. https://doi.org/10.1167/3.1.3

The human visual system is particularly sensitive to abrupt onset of new objects that appear in the visual field. Onsets have been shown to capture attention even when other transients simultaneously occur. This has led some authors to argue for the...
