The modular organization of cortical pathways linking visual area 4 (V4) with occipital 2 (V2) and inferotemporal posterior ventral (PITv) was investigated through an analysis the patterns retrogradely labeled cell bodies after injections tracers into V4 PITv. Although cytochrome oxidase or other stains have failed to yield reliable independent anatomical markers for modules beyond V1 V2, PITv seem compartments specific cortico-cortical connectivity. Tracer cells in V2 (1) thin stripes...
A considerable amount of research over the last decades has focused on apparent specialization V2 thin stripes for processing color in diurnal primates. However, because are functionally heterogeneous that they consist largely separate color- and luminance-preferring domains color-preferring contain a systematic representation hue, we hypothesized contained functional maps subserve luminance processing. Here show, using optical imaging intrinsic cortical signals microelectrode recording,...
The organization of projections from V2 thin stripes and interstripes to V4 was investigated using a combination physiological anatomical techniques. compartments were first characterized, in vivo, optical recording intrinsic signals. Multiple anterograde tracers then injected into different compartments. distribution labeled axons analyzed tangential or horizontal sections including V4. A small iontophoretic injection, either stripe an interstripe, large primary several secondary foci the...
Relay neurons in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) receive direct visual input predominantly from a single retinal ganglion cell (RGC), addition to indirect other sources including interneurons, thalamic reticular (TRN), and cortex. To address extent of influence these on response properties LGN neurons, we fit Generalized Linear Model (GLM) spike responses cat driven by spatially homogeneous spots that were rapidly modulated pseudorandom luminance sequence. Several spot sizes used probe...
It has been controversial whether the cytochrome oxidase (CO)-dense blobs in primate primary visual cortex (V1) and CO-dense thin stripes area 2 (V2) are parts of a cortical color-processing stream that is segregated from other functional streams. One key pieces evidence for color previous report specific connections between stripes, which parallel to interblobs interstripes. To study degree segregation proposed different streams, current study, anatomical tracers were injected into V2...
V2 has long been recognized to contain functionally distinguishable compartments that are correlated with the stripelike pattern of cytochrome oxidase activity. Early electrophysiological studies suggested color, direction/disparity, and orientation selectivity were largely segregated in thin, thick, interstripes, respectively. Subsequent revealed a greater degree homogeneity distribution response properties across stripes, yet color-selective cells still found be most prevalent thin...
Many studies have provided evidence for the existence of universal constraints on color categorization or naming in various languages, but biological basis these is unknown. A recent study pattern across numerous languages has suggested that patterns tend to avoid straddling a region space at near border between English composite categories "warm" and "cool". This fault line represents fundamental constraint naming. Here we report two-way along correlated with sign L- versus M-cone contrast...
Background: Transorbital Ultrasonography (TOS) is a promising imaging technology that can be used to characterize the structures of optic nerve and potential alterations may occur in those as result an increase intracranial pressure (ICP) or presence other disorders such multiple sclerosis (MS) hydrocephalus. Objective: In this paper, primary objective develop fully automated system capable segmenting calculating diameters are associated with TOS images. These include diameter sheath (ONSD)...
Area V2 of macaque monkeys is traditionally thought to consist 3 distinct functional compartments with characteristic cortical connections and properties. Orientation selectivity one property that has frequently been used distinguish stripes, however, this receptive field found in a high percentage neurons across compartments. Using quantitative intrinsic imaging, we derived maps preferred orientation, orientation selectivity, gradient thin thick interstripes area V2. Orientation-selective...
The existed synthesis methods for producing high microhardness nanostructured metal materials (NMMs) are usually at the cost of reducing tensile strength and introducing heterogeneous elements, thus making forming ultrahigh ultrapure NMMs significantly challengeable. We unprecedentedly produced (99.9997%) nickel deposits simultaneously with an mirror-like surfaces as well appreciably ductility by using our proposed ultrafine anode scanning electrodeposition (UAS-ECD). Distinctively, UAS-ECD...
We investigate the spatial correlations of orientation and color information in natural images. find that correlation falls off rapidly with increasing distance, while is more highly correlated over longer distances. show are statistically independent images jointly encoded decays faster than alone. Our findings suggest that: (a) should be processed separate channels (b) organization cortical selectivity at low frequencies a reflection adaptation to statistical structure visual world. These...
Abstract College students face uncertainties during job searches due to a lack of career planning, unclear objectives, and ineffective search strategies, leading poor employment outcomes. Fuzzy Control (FC) based Job Search Strategies (JS2) are proposed in this research as an optimized technique named FC-JS2-TSC. This combines Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy inference with Cuckoo (C) optimization. The primary goals improving individualized advice creating integrated system deal concerns. FC uses...
Abstract Customer survey data is critical to supporting customer preference modeling in engineering design. We present a framework of information retrieval and design ensure the collection quality for analyzing customers’ preferences their consideration-then-choice decision-making related social impact. The utility our approach demonstrated through customers vacuum cleaner market. Based on data, we performed descriptive analysis network-based understand consideration choice.
Information about various visual attributes, such as orientation or color, is represented in the primate striate cortex (VI) before reaching extrastriate cortices. Previous studies, using single-or multi-unit recordings, have reached conflicting conclusions regarding question of whether these different attributes are by separate populations neurons VI. We addressed this with imaging intrinsic optical signals from macaque The animals viewed either full field (uniform) color stimuli drifting...
Abstract Quantitatively determining in vivo achievable drug concentrations targeted organs of animal models and subsequent target engagement confirmation is a challenge to discovery translation due lack bioassay technologies that can discriminate binding with different mechanisms. We have developed multiplexed high-throughput method quantify distribution tissues by integrating high content screening (HCS) U-Net based deep learning (DL) image analysis models. This technology combination...
