The paper shows that real and model-generated images can be distinguished at V2 scaling, challenging the interpretation of Bouma’s Law in crowding.

The paper compares texture models using deep CNN features and finds that while CNN models perform well under foveal inspection, no model perfectly matches all textures across viewing conditions.

The paper investigates how visual crowding affects the ability to detect spatial distortions in peripherally presented letters, finding that crowding impairs distortion detection and alters distortion sensitivity tuning.
