TLDR
Redundancy in the perception of bilateral symmetry in dynamic dot textures was investigated using two-alternative forced-choice techniques and it was found that the symmetry information fell within a strip approximately 1 deg wide about the central axis of symmetry, irrespective of the size of the texture at the retina.Abstract:
Redundancy in the perception of bilateral symmetry in dynamic dot textures was investigated using two-alternative forced-choice techniques. It was found that the symmetry information utilized by the visual system fell within a strip approximately 1 deg wide about the central axis of symmetry, irrespective of the size of the texture at the retina. Outside this strip, the symmetry information was found to be completely redundant.read more

Characteristics and models of human symmetry detection
TL;DR: By examining the effects of several factors on symmetry detection, this research has revealed some important characteristics of how humans perceive symmetry, which constrain the general principles of putative underlying mechanisms and models of human symmetry detection.

Visual perception and aging.
TL;DR: It is concluded that perceptual processing deficits due to aging will become evident when the computational load reaches a certain level of complexity (larger or more complex network) even if the tasks remain cognitively simple.

Behind the Looking-Glass: A Review on Human Symmetry Perception
TL;DR: Evidence seems to converge towards the idea that symmetry detection is subserved by a preprocessing stage involving spatial filters followed by information integration across the visual field in higher-tier cortical areas.

Higher-order structure in regularity detection
TL;DR: It is concluded that global regularities are easier to detect when the local correspondences are supported by higher-order ones formed between them and, in principle, the mechanism used by the human visual system to detect regularity incorporates something like bootstrapping based on higher- order structure.

Moiré Effect from Random Dots
TL;DR: The appearance of circular Moiré fringes when a random dot pattern is superimposed on itself provides new evidence that the human visual process may include the computation of local autocorrelations by excitation of line detectors.
