Detectability of several ideal spatial patterns.

چکیده
The relative detectability of three potentially optimal visual signals derived on the basis of statistical decision theory was measured and compared with that of a one-dimensional analog of the most detectable signal found by Watson et al. [Invest. Ophthalmol. Vis. Sci. Suppl. 20, 178 (1981)]. The latter signal was marginally easier to detect than the other three, but the small differences in detectability preclude our making strong inferences about the nature of visual pattern detection.

Adaptive shaping of cortical response selectivity in the vibrissa pathway.
One embodiment of context-dependent sensory processing is bottom-up adaptation, where persistent stimuli decrease neuronal firing rate over hundreds of milliseconds. Adaptation is not, however, simply the fatigue of the sensory pathway, but shapes the information flow and selectivity to stimulus features. Adaptation enhances spatial discriminability (distinguishing stimulus location) while degr...

Recently, a large set of electroencephalography (EEG) data is being generated by several high-quality labs worldwide and is free to be used by all researchers in the world. On the other hand, many neuroscience researchers need these data to study different neural disorders for better diagnosis and evaluating the treatment. However, some format adaptation and pre-processing are necessary before ...
متن کاملDetection of temporal structure depends on spatial structure
Observers can more easily detect correlated patterns of temporal contrast modulation within hybrid visual images composed of two components when those components are drawn from the same original picture (Blake, R., & Yang, Y. (1997). Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, 94, 7115-7119). To learn whether spatial phase is a mediating variable, we measured thresholds for detection of con...

متن کاملModelling the local spread of invasive plants: importance of including spatial distribution and detectability in management plans
1. The success of locally applied treatments for exotic weed control depends on the effectiveness of the method used and workers’ abilities to find plants within infested sites. Detectability of exotic plants, however, depends on aspects of a plant’s spatial distribution such as the number and size of patches. We lack an explicit examination of how incomplete detection affects the spread of exo...
