We review evidence on the cognitive neuropsychology of visual object processing, from 1984-2004, dividing the work according to whether it deals with the analysis of visual features, objects, or the relations between object processing and action. Research across this period has led to (1) a more detailed analysis of disorders of feature processing and feature binding, (2) a finer-grained unders...

Context information is widely used in computer vision for tracking arbitrary objects[1, 3, 4]. Global context cannot deal with the object deformation problem, while the local part context interactions are relatively stable. When the target appearance changes gradually, the intrinsic property of internal interaction between the parts inside object and context interaction between object and backg...

This article engages with medical practice to develop a philosophically informed understanding of epistemic engagement in medicine, and object relations more broadly. I take my point departure the clinical encounter draw on French psychoanalytical theory expand taxonomy already proposed by Karin Knorr-Cetina. In so doing, argue for addition an abject-type relation; that is, objects transgress f...

This paper presents a model for positional relations among bodies of arbitrary shape in three dimensions. It is based on an existing model for projective relations among regions in two dimensions. The motivation is to provide a formal qualitative spatial relations model for emerging 3D applications. Two sets of relations are defined: ternary projective relations based on the concept of collinea...
