Invertebrate Perception: Measuring Depth Intervals through Path Integration and Vision

نویسنده

  • Thomas S Collett
چکیده

A foraging fiddler crab can estimate how close a potential intruder is from its burrow entrance, even when the entrance in the sand is invisible to the crab. Recent work shows that, to assess this depth interval, crabs combine information from vision and path integration in an unusual manner.

Investigating the effect of structural form of outdoor path of residential complexes on improving the routing of people in emergency situations

Background and Objective: Due to the importance of time in choosing the optimal routing to reduce the damage caused by accidents in critical situations such as earthquakes, fires, etc., the structural form of the route has a significant impact on the selection of people in emergencies. It can also be very effective in the work for designers, managers and urban planners for disaster risk managem...

Efficacy of Image-Guided Action is Controlled by Perception

to be published in the Journal of Vision Researchers on human perception have devised a number of methods for measuring perceived location and using it to assess perceptually guided action. Such work has primarily been performed in space accessible by reaching and walking. Here we use the same approach to assess perceptually guided action in very near space, specifically, in the applied context...

Path perception during rotation: influence of instructions, depth range, and dot density

How do observers perceive their direction of self-motion when traveling on a straight path while their eyes are rotating? Our previous findings suggest that information from retinal flow and extra-retinal information about eye movements are each sufficient to solve this problem for both perception and active control of self-motion [Vision Res. 40 (2000) 3873; Psych. Sci. 13 (2002) 485]. In this...

Fostering EFL Teacher Enthusiasm through Vision Enhancement and its Relationship with Students’ Attitude and Effort

Teacher enthusiasm and its impact on students’ learning and emotions have remained unnoticed in the realm of second language learning and teaching. This study aimed at exploring the possibility of boosting language teacher enthusiasm and its potential relationship with language learners’ effort and attitude for language learning. In order to foster teacher enthusiasm, the highly novel concept o...

Surface construction by a 2-D differentiation-integration process: a neurocomputational model for perceived border ownership, depth, and lightness in Kanizsa figures.

Human visual perception is a fundamentally relational process: Lightness perception depends on luminance ratios, and depth perception depends on occlusion (difference of depth) cues. Neurons in low-level visual cortex are sensitive to the difference (but not the value itself) of signals, and these differences have to be used to reconstruct the input. This process can be regarded as a 2-dimensio...
