A general dynamical system composed by two coupled sectors is considered. The initial time configuration of one of these sectors is described by a set of classical data while the other is described by standard quantum data. These dynamical systems will be named half quantum. The aim of this paper is to derive the dynamical evolution of a general half quantum system from its full quantum formula...

Patients with hemi-spatial neglect have trouble finding targets defined by a conjunction of visual features. The problem is widely believed to stem from a high-level deficit in attentional deployment, which in turn has led to disagreement over whether the detection of basic features is also disrupted. If one assumes that the detection of salient visual features can be based on the output of spa...

Visual detection of a line target differing in orientation from a background of lines may be achieved speedily and effortlessly. Such performance is assumed to occur early in vision and to involve filter mechanisms acting in parallel over the visual field. This study establishes orientational limits on this performance and analytically derives some generic properties of the underlying filters. ...

Half away between edge detection and pattern recognition this study aim to characterize singularities in order to build closed edges and to classify object within an image.
