How Would the World Look if It Looked as if It were Encoded as an Intertwined Set of Probability Density Distributions?

ogy. Leaving this difficult issue aside, now consider the psychological evidence that suggests vision is indeterminate, evidence which may fit nicely with the suggestion that visual processing uses probabilistic coding. Two lines of empirical evidence show that visual perception is an ongoing process which involves repeated sampling of the environment. Such a structure to visual perception fits...

BASIC SCIENCE Molecular Mechanisms of Experimental Salt-Sensitive Hypertension

H ypertension has been defined operationally as the level of blood pressure (BP) at which the benefits of treatment exceed the risks.1 It also has been defined in a more concrete way by the Joint National Committee on Hypertension (JNC7) as, in adults, a systolic BP ≥140 mm Hg or a diastolic BP ≥90 mm Hg.2 Hypertension has been shown to be a risk factor for a variety of morbidities, especially ...
