Scope: This bibliography contains references to experimental papers investigating invariances in the visual system.

Support level: Low - 2000. This bibliography is not well supported. It contains references to papers I happened to have and references I came across while maintaining other bibliographies.

Publication types: Journal articles only. To keep effort low and quality high, I have confined this bibliography to journal articles only. Red titles indicate survey articles.

Online papers: An 'A' or 'P' (or 'T' for text only) after a reference link indicates that it leads to an abstract or full paper, respectively. Upper case letters refer to online documents provided by a journal, which might be accessible only to subscribers (indicated by a '?'). Lower case letters refer to online documents provided by an author. Also the links at the end of the references are differentiated in this way by upper and lower case letters at the beginning of the words 'abstract.html' etc. and by a '?', if the corresponding document is only accessible to subscribers. The site location is indicated by a preceding .uk, .com, etc.

BibTeX: A bibtex file for the journal article references is also available (compressed and uncompressed).

Feedback: Please feel free to send me any kind of feedback about this bibliography.
