title: Two dimensionality of the correspondence process in apparent motion.
abstract: A fundamental process underlying motion perception is the matching of corresponding elements in different views. In this correspondence process spatial separation between elements plays a major role. The relevant separation is shown by the current study to be the two-dimensional, uninterpreted distance, a finding that has an implication to the level at which the correspondence process is carried out. The current findings are compared with earlier results concerning 'optimality' of apparent motion to conclude that optimality cannot serve as a measure for the correspondence strength.
