The limited ability to estimate properly the linear extent or spatial separation of objects is one of the well-tested and documented features of visual perception. However, despite a large amount of experimental data collected in various studies of the Müller-Lyer illusion and related visual illusions of extent, the generally accepted view concerning the origin of this phenomenon is still absent. This chapter addresses a possible role of the perceptual positional shifts of the stimulus parts in occurrence of the illusions. It also discusses the most important features of the computational model based on the hypothesis of positional coding via centroids.

The Müller-Lyer patterns formed by separate dots have been used as stimuli in an experiment on visual perception to assess the influence of the number of dots composing the figures on the magnitude of the illusion. As predicted by our model, based on the Image Function theory, an increase was noted in the magnitude of illusion when the number of dots composing the arrowheads was increased. It follows from the model that filtering of the input image plays a central role in the formation of the illusion.
