Psychophysical study reveals motion coherence perception aligns with Shannon-Wiener entropy in human observers, indicating that information theory predicts subjective visual pattern goodness.
Observers judged the motion coherence of randomdot cinematograms Theoretical models were developed for coherence matches between cinematograms constructed from different angle distributions Evidence is presented that coherence matches are made on the basis of the Shannon-Wiener information entropy We show how the formal structure of information theory may be used to predict perceived pattern goodness when the underlying distributions of pattern alternatives are implicit in the judgment task
