In a single study, silent speechreading and signed language processing were investigated using fMRI. Deaf native signers of British sign language (BSL) who were also proficient speechreaders of English were the focus of the research. Separate analyses contrasted different aspects of the data. In the first place, we found that the left superior temporal cortex, including auditory regions, was st...

Our understanding of the neural basis of object recognition is based primarily on work with non-human primates. The problem has recently been addressed in humans using functional magnetic resonance imaging; new results indicate that the lateral occipital complex plays an important role in human object recognition.

Deep Tracking ([1]) is a recently proposed theoretical framework for end-to-end unsupervised visual tracking. Researchers have successfully applied the framework to directly predict full unoccluded space occupancy grid map from raw laser input data. Compared to traditional visual tracking methods on robotics and autonomous driving, which heavily relies on real world knowledge, the learning fram...

Large changes in a scene often become difficult to notice if made during an eye movement, image flicker, movie cut, or other such disturbance. It is argued here that this change blindness can serve as a useful tool to explore various aspects of vision. This argument centers around the proposal that focused attention is needed for the explicit perception of change. Given this, the study of chang...

As research in computer vision has shifted from only processing single, static images to the manipulation of video sequences, the concept of action recognition has become important. Fundamental to understanding action is reasoning about time, in either an implicit or explicit framework. In this paper I describe several spe-ciic examples of incorporating time into representations of action and h...

This essay examines the way Irenaeus of Lyons describes Blandina in her martyrdom: seen by others as embodying Christ and so encouraging them to also bear witness be born into life Virgin Mother, Church. It explores particular Irenaeus' exegetical moves, regain a sense unity theology exegesis transformed transforming vision, which turn extends incarnation present those who take up cross. In thi...
