Slightly tangential, are there any computer vision algorithms that react to optical illusions in the same way human vision does?

- jacobolus 12y agoYou’ll need to elaborate. There are hundreds of different “optical illusions”, because human vision is extremely complex with numerous processing steps and many types of adaptation. There’s no single “algorithm” that responds to images the way a human responds. If you can narrow your question down to a few effects, and figure out what you want your algorithm to do (classify images? print a nice picture to hang on your wall compensating for different scene lighting? detect object boundaries? predict what color name a human will attach to a particular object?), then it should be possible to find or make a program that does that. (At least in principle. Really depends how sophisticated your goals are.)
- codezero 12y agoI don't want an algorithm to do anything. I am not in the field, and I was curious whether any computer vision systems account for any (not all) optical illusions that humans are susceptible to. It's just a curiosity.
