Abstract :
A new physiological model is proposed for geometrical illusion phenomena in human vision and is implemented by artificial neural networks. According to the model, illusion is a result of nonuniform bending in visual space whose Riemannian metric tensor is determined by lateral excitatory-inhibitory dynamics of the retina neurons.
