Is the S-opponent chromatic sub-system sluggish? (2004)
Journal Article
Smithson, H., & Mollon, J. (2004). Is the S-opponent chromatic sub-system sluggish?. Vision Research, 44(25), 2919-2929. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.visres.2004.06.022

The S-opponent pathway has a reputation for being sluggish relative to the L/M-opponent pathway. Cottaris and De Valois [Nature 395 (1998) 896] claim that S-opponent signals are available in Macaque V1 only after 96-135 ms whereas L/M-opponent signal...

Colour constancy in context: Roles for local adaptation and levels of reference (2004)
Journal Article
Smithson, H., & Zaidi, Q. (2004). Colour constancy in context: Roles for local adaptation and levels of reference. Journal of Vision, 4(9), 693-710. https://doi.org/10.1167/4.9.3

By determining the locations of boundaries between colour categories, we measured changes in the colour appearance of test-reflectances as a function of the simulated illumination. Test-reflectances were displayed against a variegated background of r... Read More about Colour constancy in context: Roles for local adaptation and levels of reference.
