Post-doc to join project investigating human perceptual/cognitive processing
of natural scenes (e.g., visual search, texture-based segmentation, object
identification, detection and/or contrast gain relations). Research to
address how complex scenes are processed, what factors/properties in the scene
limit visual performance of different abilities, and/or how different imaging
methods of nighttime scenes impact upon performance. (Nighttime scenes are
obtained with different sensors such as infrared, image-intensifier, fused
multi-sensor images, and scenes rendered in false color.) In addition to
spatial properties of daylight and nighttime scenes, research may involve
chromatic, stereoscopic depth, and motion/temporal aspects of natural scene
imagery.
The position is in a very strong vision group in a great environment in the
Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at the University of
Louisville. Position is for one-year, renewable to three years; NIH pay scale
(or higher depending upon experience); to begin by Fall 1999. C programming,
MATLAB, or image processing experience desirable, but not required.
