CONSTANT ROTATION IN DARKNESS
• rotation percept decays
• after stop, percept of rotation in opposite direction
• reflects cupular mechanics

OTOLITHS
sensitive to tilt and translation
![Page 6: SPATIAL AWARENESS DEMO 20 juni 2008 detection of self motion sensing body orientation in space visual perception in earth-centric coordinates](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551a736b5503463e778b60d9/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
OTOLITH SIGNAL IS AMBIGUOUS
hair cells cannot distinguish tilt and translation
![Page 7: SPATIAL AWARENESS DEMO 20 juni 2008 detection of self motion sensing body orientation in space visual perception in earth-centric coordinates](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551a736b5503463e778b60d9/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
SPATIAL ORIENTATION ILLUSION
pilot is upright, but feels tilted
![Page 8: SPATIAL AWARENESS DEMO 20 juni 2008 detection of self motion sensing body orientation in space visual perception in earth-centric coordinates](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551a736b5503463e778b60d9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
AMBIGUITY PROBLEM
otolith signal may have various causes:
• translation (a)• force of gravity due to tilt (g)• combination of a and g
How can the brain resolve this ambiguity ?
inverse problem

CANAL- OTOLITH INTERACTION MODEL
• canals detect rotation during tilt changes
• their signal helps to decompose otolith signal

Two different tasks:
1. Set line to vertical (SVV)
2. Estimate your body tilt (SBT)

ACCURACY vs PRECISION
Accuracy:
How close is the response to the true value?
Precision:
How reproducible is the response?

ACCURACY IN LINE TASK
due to underestimation of body tilt?
![Page 21: SPATIAL AWARENESS DEMO 20 juni 2008 detection of self motion sensing body orientation in space visual perception in earth-centric coordinates](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551a736b5503463e778b60d9/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
NO UNDERESTIMATION OF BODY TILT
SVV SBT
• Subjects know quite well how they are tilted (SBT)
• Yet, their line settings undercompensate for tilt (SVV)

is scatter in SVV simply reflection of noise in body tilt signal?

SVV LESS NOISY THAN SBT
![Page 25: SPATIAL AWARENESS DEMO 20 juni 2008 detection of self motion sensing body orientation in space visual perception in earth-centric coordinates](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551a736b5503463e778b60d9/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
SUMMARY SBT AND SVV DATA
Two paradoxical findings:
1. subject knows tilt angle, yet makes biased line settings
2. more certain about line setting than about body tilt
estimate body tilt (SBT) adjust line to vertical (SVV)
![Page 26: SPATIAL AWARENESS DEMO 20 juni 2008 detection of self motion sensing body orientation in space visual perception in earth-centric coordinates](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551a736b5503463e778b60d9/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
SBT DATA SHOW:
• An unbiased head tilt signal is available
• Noise increases with tilt angle
![Page 27: SPATIAL AWARENESS DEMO 20 juni 2008 detection of self motion sensing body orientation in space visual perception in earth-centric coordinates](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551a736b5503463e778b60d9/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
SIGNALS REQUIRED FOR SPATIAL VISION
retinal signal
to compute line in space (Ls), brain must combine info about line orientation on retina (LR) and head tilt (HS)
head-tilt signal
![Page 28: SPATIAL AWARENESS DEMO 20 juni 2008 detection of self motion sensing body orientation in space visual perception in earth-centric coordinates](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551a736b5503463e778b60d9/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
SIMPLY USING RAW TILT SIGNAL …
would not explain SVV bias !!spatial vision would be accurate, but noisy
raw tilt signal

A BAYESIAN PERSPECTIVE
IDEAL OBSERVER MODEL
![Page 30: SPATIAL AWARENESS DEMO 20 juni 2008 detection of self motion sensing body orientation in space visual perception in earth-centric coordinates](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551a736b5503463e778b60d9/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
IDEAL OBSERVER STRATEGY
1) Use sensory data: noisy tilt signal suggests range of possible tilt angles (likelihood)
2) Use prior knowledge: we know that large tilt angles are very uncommon (prior)
3) Most likely tilt angle (posterior) is product of likelihood and prior

IDEAL OBSERVER STRATEGY
Tilt prior has 2 effects on SVV:
• Less noise
• Bias at large tilt
![Page 32: SPATIAL AWARENESS DEMO 20 juni 2008 detection of self motion sensing body orientation in space visual perception in earth-centric coordinates](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551a736b5503463e778b60d9/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
WHY WOULD THIS MAKE SENSE?
1) Less noise in spatial vision
2) Downside: bias at large tilts
3) Average performance improves (large tilts are rare)

MODEL EXPLANATION OF NOISE LEVELS:SVV vs SBT PRECISION
• SVV is less noisy than the SBT (remarkable, but explained by model)
• SBT becomes more noisy at larger tilt (supports model assumption)
• SBT noise levels compatible with head-tilt fit results
![Page 43: SPATIAL AWARENESS DEMO 20 juni 2008 detection of self motion sensing body orientation in space visual perception in earth-centric coordinates](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551a736b5503463e778b60d9/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
CONCLUSION
Accuracy-precision trade-off in spatial vision:
• Bayesian strategy reduces noise at small tilts
• causes systematic errors at large tilts
