gesture and motion recognition are needed for a variety of applications. the use of human hand motions as a natural interface tool has motivated researchers to conduct research in the modeling, analysis and recognition of various hand movements. in particular, human-computer intelligent interaction has been a focus of research in vision-based gesture recognition. in this work, we introduce a 3-...

acquired color deficiency in the tritan axis in parkinson’s disease has already been reported, manifesting itself as impaired performance in various visual tasks. however, its clinical significance has always been controversial. in this study we evaluated the performance of parkinson s disease patients in lanthony 15-desaturated clinical test and for the first time, compared it with the standar...

Recently, the development of technology has enriched form classroom interaction. Exploring characteristics current teaching interaction forms can clarify deficiencies interactions, thereby improving teaching. Based on existing interactive coding system, this paper adopted ITIAS and took with whiteboard, television or mobile terminals as research scene, selected 20 videos cases in environment ob...

Historically, physiology is the daughter of pathology. Healthy people struggling with an overwhelming nature had no time to bother with the workings of their organs, and doctors-naturallywere always preoccupied with disease. For them the argument from malfunction to normal function has become almost second nature and the successes of this approach in such fields as neurology, endocrinology, and...

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the leading cause of blindness in industrialized countries. Remarkable advances in the diagnosis and treatment of DR have been made during the past 30 years, but several important management questions and treatment deficiencies remain unanswered. The global diabetes epidemic threatens to overwhelm resources and increase the incidence of blindness, necessitating the ...

PURPOSE To study acquired color vision and visual field defects in patients with ocular hypertension (OH) and early glaucoma. METHODS In a prospective study we evaluated 99 eyes of 56 patients with OH without visual field defects and no hereditary color deficiencies, followed up for 4 to 6 years (mean = 4.7 +/- 0.6 years). Color vision defects were studied using a special computer program for...

Background: Amblyopia is a reduction in visual acuity that often involves reduction in visual skills such as ocular motility and accommodation. Various treatment modalities for amblyopia include spectacle correction, patching, atropine, and optometric vision therapy (OVT). Clinically, OVT often reduces the severity of amblyopia. There is also considerable anecdotal evidence that improvement in ...

The scope of this paper is to outline, in a general way, the safety philosophy inherent in present roadand street design, trace the origin of this philosophy, and to present the principles for a new design of streets and roads. It will be argued that deficiencies in the present road design philosophy are the main cause of the global road safety crisis, clearly indicating its man-made nature. A ...

People with normal trichromatic color vision experience variegated hue percepts under dim illuminations where only rod photoreceptors mediate vision. Here, hue perceptions were determined for persons with congenital color vision deficiencies over a wide range of light levels, including very low light levels where rods alone mediate vision. Deuteranomalous trichromats, deuteranopes and protanope...

The basic physiology of leucocyte emigration from the intravascular space into the tissues is now known to be dependent on a class of cell surface molecules that have come to be known as adhesion molecules. Many cell-cell interactions are dependent on adhesion and signal transduction via the various adhesion molecules, particularly the integrins. The study of the functions of these molecules ha...
