Abstract
Gratings with three sinusoidal components of high spatial frequency are shown to interact with a sinusoidal grating two octaves lower in frequency. This finding is inconsistent with the hypothesis that the visual system analyses spatial patterns in independent narrowly-tuned bands of spatial frequency.Keywords
