 For the **Periph-NF condition**, the following condition-specific transformation was then applied before the shared SimCLR augmentations:
 
 1. Obtain the participant's synchronized per-frame gaze location. When a reliable gaze location was unavailable, use the image center as the fallback fixation location.
-2. Apply [NeuroFovea](https://github.com/ArturoDeza/NeuroFovea_PyTorch) to the frame, with the transformation centered on the gaze-defined fixation location.
-3. Use the NeuroFovea scale parameter **`s = 0.4`**, producing an eccentricity-dependent, metamer-like transformation in which precise spatial structure is progressively replaced by texture-like information farther from fixation.
-4. Resize the NeuroFovea output to the network's **`224 × 224`** input resolution, if necessary.
-5. Occlude the gaze-centered central region of the NeuroFovea-transformed image with a uniform gray circular scotoma (`128`).
-6. Gaussian-blur the scotoma boundary (`kernel = 15`) to produce a feathered transition between the masked central region and the retained peripheral image.
