Interceptive timing: prior knowledge matters.
Fast interceptive actions, such as catching a ball, rely upon accurate and precise information from vision. Recent models rely on flexible combinations of visual angle and its rate of expansion of which the tau parameter is a specific case. When an object approaches an observer, however, its trajectory may introduce bias into tau-like parameters that render these computations unacceptable as th...
متن کاملKnowledge Matters: Importance of Prior Information for Optimization
We explored the effect of introducing prior knowledge into the intermediate level of deep supervised neural networks on two tasks. On a task we designed, all black-box state-of-theart machine learning algorithms which we tested, failed to generalize well. We motivate our work from the hypothesis that, there is a training barrier involved in the nature of such tasks, and that humans learn useful...
متن کاملPink Cricket Balls Through Rose-Tinted Glasses: Enhancing Interceptive Timing
Cricket is a popular but potentially dangerous sport. It is played with a hard ball that can travel at great speeds. Serious injuries, including fatalities, have occurred when balls have struck participants. The game is traditionally played during daylight with a dark red ball, but recent games have been played during the day and at night using a 'pink' ball. We have reported data that seemed t...
متن کاملTiming Matters: Tackling Intractable Problems
I f you were at least five years old on 20 July 1969, then you know exactly where you were when Neil Armstrong became the first human to walk on the moon. With that act, America won the space race. Safely going to and returning from the moon was a long-term goal that required solving a myriad of related technical problems. It took concerted resolve to overcome this heretofore intractable scient...
متن کاملGeolocation for Twitter: Timing Matters
Automated geolocation of social media messages can benefit a variety of downstream applications. However, these geolocation systems are typically evaluated without attention to how changes in time impact geolocation. Since different people, in different locations write messages at different times, these factors can significantly vary the performance of a geolocation system over time. We demonst...
