On the limits of Fourier decompostitions in visual texture perception.
Recent discoveries of nonlinear perceptual analyzers in effortless texture discrimination cast serious doubt on the usefulness of Fourier image decompositions to describe suprathreshold visual-texture perception. We now explain the meaning of these results.
