When the senses deliver conflicting information, vision dominates spatial processing, and audition dominates temporal processing. We asked whether this sensory specialization results in cross-modal encoding of unisensory input into the task-appropriate modality. Specifically, we investigated whether visually portrayed temporal structure receives automatic, obligatory encoding in the auditory do...

Visual languages have been used for some time to support the development of parallel and distributed programs. However, these languages usually tend to focus exclusively on the visual (program) design structure, in terms of the components (processes) and their interconnections represented as boxes and lines, or on the visual behaviour of the components represented as data or control ows, depict...

One of the major challenges in vision research is to analyze the effect of visual stimuli on human vision. However, no relationship has been yet discovered between the structure of the visual stimulus, and the structure of fixational eye movements. This study reveals the plasticity of human fixational eye movements in relation to the 'complex' visual stimulus. We demonstrated that the fractal t...

“Pictorial space” is the mental structure that appears to be the scaffold for the visual awareness when looking “into” (as opposed to “at”) a picture. Its structure differs from the “visual space” that is the scaffold for the visual awareness when looking into the scene in front of the observer. The structure of pictorial space has been probed empirically and explored theoretically. Here we pro...

The increasing size of structured data that are digitally available emphasizes the crucial need for more suitable representation tools than the traditional textual list of results. A suitable visual representation should both reflect the database’s structure for navigation purpose and allow performing visual analytical tasks for knowledge extraction purpose. In this paper we present a visual na...

it is obvious, that human react toward its surrounding and environment, and the dominant part of people's behavior is a reaction manner. human receives the visual element of his environment by the optic sense, and then the mind react to these visual information, so it may have good or bad respond to them, depending on the quality of the visual information received. it is the basis of all e...

This paper presents simulation and experimental results of position-based visual servoing control process of a 6R robot using 2 fixed cameras. This method has the ability to deal with real time changes in the relative position of the target-object with respect to robot. Also, greater accuracy and independency of servo control structure from the target pose coordinates are the additional advanta...

BACKGROUND Adolescents born extremely preterm (EP; <28 weeks' gestation) and/or extremely low birthweight (ELBW; <1000 g) experience high rates of visual impairments, however the potential neural correlates of visual impairments in EP/ELBW adolescents require further investigation. This study aimed to: 1) compare optic radiation and primary visual cortical structure between EP/ELBW adolescents ...
