Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) is an attractive modality for noninvasive, volumetric imaging of scattering media such as biological tissues. By choosing the ultrasonic detection frequency, PAT enables scalable spatial resolution with desired imaging depth up to ~7 cm while maintaining a high depth-to-resolution ratio of ~200 and consistent optical absorption contrasts. Photoacoustic microscopy ...

The relationship between color and perceived depth for realistic, colored objects with varying shading was explored. Background: Studies have shown that warm-colored stimuli tend to appear nearer in depth than cool-colored stimuli. The majority of these studies asked human observers to view physically equidistant, colored stimuli and compare them for relative depth. However, in most cases, the ...

Data depth is a modern nonparametric tool for the analysis of multivariate, and recently also functional and general Banach-valued data. The notion of halfspace depth was introduced by Tukey (1975) as a powerful tool for the picturing of multivariate data and exploratory analysis. Two decades later the data depth has start to be developed as a general nonparametric tool for multivariate data. D...

This paper will present details of a system that allows for an evolutionary introduction of depth perception into the existing 2D digital TV framework. The work is part of the European Information Society Technologies (IST) project “Advanced Three-Dimensional Television System Technologies” (ATTEST), an activity, where industries, research centers and universities have joined forces to design a...

The Quality of Experience (QoE) of 3D contents is usually considered to be the combination of the perceived visual quality, the perceived depth quality, and lastly the visual fatigue and comfort. When either fatigue or discomfort are induced, studies tend to show that observers prefer to experience a 2D version of the contents. For this reason, providing a comfortable experience is a prerequisi...

background and aim: this article carries out a literature review of the quality and limitations of the narrative-based language intervention (nbli) for preschool and school-age hearing aided and cochlear implanted children. recent findings: the authors conducted a comprehensive search of electronic databases such as web of science, scopus, pubmed, google scholar, cochrane, and proquest from 198...

The mainstream of binocular vision research has long been focused on understanding how binocular disparity is used for depth perception. In recent years, researchers have begun to explore how monocular regions in binocularly viewed scenes contribute to our perception of the three-dimensional world. Here we review the field as it currently stands, with a focus on understanding the extent to whic...
