The " red " and " green " cones, in particular, have very similar sensitivity curves that are only shifted slightly with respect to each other.

Using the results of a contrast sensitivity exam, a contrast sensitivity curve can be plotted, with angular frequency on the horizontal, and contrast threshold on the vertical axis.
13.
A set of color-matching functions, like the spectral sensitivity curves of the LMS space but not restricted to be nonnegative sensitivities, associates physically produced light spectra with specific tristimulus values.
14.
They can be thought of as the spectral sensitivity curves of three linear light detectors yielding the CIE tristimulus values " X ", " Y " and " Z ".
15.
The spectral sensitivity curve of medium-wavelength ( " M " ) cone cells overlaps those of short-wavelength ( " S " ) and long-wavelength ( " L " ) cone cells.
16.
At higher frequencies 200 Hz to ~ 3 kHz the aural sensitivity curve allows us to hear the effect of wind as an addition to the normal noise floor, even though it has a far lower energy content.
17.
The auditory sensitivity curve of this particular elephant began at 16 Hz with a threshold of 65 dB . A shallow slope decreased to the best response at 1 kHz with a threshold of 8 dB, followed by a steep threshold increase above 4 kHz.
18.
"Tech Pan " or " Technipan ", as it is often known, was very popular among some professional photographers and astronomers, as it is capable of recording extremely fine detail, and its sensitivity curve extended much further into the red than most films.
19.
In an effort to capture inconsistencies in our preferences, PT offers a non-linear, S-shaped probability-weighted value function, implying that the decision-maker transforms probabilities along a diminishing sensitivity curve, in which the impact of a given change in probability diminishes with its distance from impossibility and certainty.

Most of the human eye's wavelength sensitivity curve, shown here, is bracketted by the Abbe number reference wavelengths of 486.1 nm ( blue ) and 656.3 nm ( red ) Abbe numbers are used in the design of achromatic lenses, as their " reciprocal " is proportional to dispersion ( slope of refractive index versus wavelength ) in the wavelength region where the human eye is most sensitive ( see graph ).
