Looking for symmetry: fixational eye movements are biased by image mirror symmetry

Abstract

This work presents the novel finding that small fixational eye movements made by humans viewing synthetic scenes have their directions strongly distorted in the presence of symmetry. The distortion results in a bias parallel to axes of symmetry measured across various task conditions and found to be persistent for up to 3 s. We argue that this automated process serves a functional role for active vision.

<abstract>
<p>Humans are highly sensitive to symmetry. During scene exploration, the area of the retina with dense light receptor coverage acquires most information from relevant locations determined by gaze fixation. We characterized patterns of fixational eye movements made by observers staring at synthetic scenes either freely (i.e., free exploration) or during a symmetry orientation discrimination task (i.e., active exploration). Stimuli could be mirror-symmetric or not. Both free and active exploration generated more saccades parallel to the axis of symmetry than along other orientations. Most saccades were small (<2°), leaving the fovea within a 4° radius of fixation. Analysis of saccade dynamics showed that the observed parallel orientation selectivity emerged within 500 ms of stimulus onset and persisted throughout the trials under both viewing conditions. Symmetry strongly distorted existing anisotropies in gaze direction in a seemingly automatic process. We argue that this bias serves a functional role in which adjusted scene sampling enhances and maintains sustained sensitivity to local spatial correlations arising from symmetry.</p>
