We investigated temporal aspects of stereoscopically perceived slant produced by the following transformations: horizontal scale, horizontal shear, vertical scale, vertical shear, divergence and rotation, between the half-images of a stereogram. Six subjects viewed large field stimuli (70 degrees diameter) both in the presence and in the absence of a visual reference. The presentation duration ...

Prior research has reported evidence of polarization in the consumption and distribution of political news in online social media. Methods to effectively measure slant of news articles at a large scale are lacking in prior literature. To fill this gap, we propose a method to measure slant of individual news articles by observing their sharing patterns on Twitter. Our method monitors tweets abou...

A slant immersion was introduced in [2] as an isometric immersion of a Riemannian manifold into an almost Hermitian manifold (M̃, g, J) with constant Wirtinger angle. From J-action point of view, the most natural surfaces in an almost Hermitian manifold are slant surfaces. Flat slant surfaces in complex space forms have been studied in [3, 4]. In this article, we study slant surfaces in complex ...

The objective of this paper is to introduce a new class submanifolds which are called pointwise quasi hemi-slant in almost Hermitian manifolds extends hemi-slant, semi-slant and slant very natural way. Several basic results respect proved paper. Moreover, we obtain some conditions the distributions involved definition submanifolds. We also get for totally geodesic mixed Finally, illustrate exam...

We have quantified voluntarily selected perceived slant of real trapezoidal surfaces (a 'reverse-perspective' scene) and their photographed counterparts (pictorial space). The surfaces were slanted about the vertical axis and observers estimated slant relative to the frontal plane. We were particularly interested in those cases in which binocular disparity and monocular perspective provided con...

Many transform based image compression methods have been experimented till now. This paper proposes novel image compression method using hybrid slant transform. Slant transform is used as base transform to focus on global features of an image. Sinusoidal orthogonal transforms like DCT, DST, Hartley and Real-DFT are paired with slant transform to generate hybrid slant wavelet transform. Performa...

In this paper we find examples of slant surfaces in the nearly Kähler six sphere. First, we characterize two-dimensional small and great spheres which are slant. Their description is given in terms of the associative 3-form in ImO. Later on, we classify the slant surfaces of S6 which are orbits of a maximal torus in G2. Among them we find a one parameter family of minimal orbits with arbitrary ...

Flock's "A Possible Optical Basis for Monocular Slant Perception" is criticized as being a theory of stimuli rather than a theory of perception. To account for accurate monocular slant perception, the theory requires 9 assumptions, including the unproved ability of the eye to register random texture density. The alternative hypothesis is proposed that monocular visual slant is a function primar...

Two word slant correction methods are evaluated in this work using handwritten numeral strings. A method originally proposed to word slant correction is adapted in order to improve the results for handwritten numeral strings. The original and modified methods are evaluated by means of some interesting analyses on the NIST SD19 database. In these analyses the difference, in terms of slant estima...

In this article, we obtain sharp estimate of the Ricci curvature of quaternion slant, bi-slant and semi-slant submanifolds in a quaternion space form, in terms of the squared mean curvature.
