1. Object vision is largely invariant to changes of retinal images objects in size and position. To reveal neuronal mechanisms this invariance, we recorded activities from single cells the anterior part inferotemporal cortex (anterior IT), determined critical features for activation individual cells, examined effects stimulus position on responses. 2. Twenty-one percent IT studied here responded ranges > 4 octaves, whereas 43% < 2 octaves. The optimal size, measured by distance between outer...
Introduction The primary visual cortex is the first cortical stage at which world analyzed. It has classically been thought to be a passive filter, only deriving information about local contrast and orientation, passing that on later stages for more complex task of object recognition. But very different view now emerging, showing V1 plays central role in much processes involving intermediate level vision, integrating contours parsing into surfaces belonging objects their backgrounds. higher...
Human and artificial features that coexist in certain types of human-like robots create a discrepancy perceived humanness evoke uncanny feelings human observers. However, whether this perceptual mismatch occurs for all faces, it is related to the toward them, unknown. We investigated by examining variety natural images robot faces with different spatial frequency (SF) information: is, only low SF, middle high SF information, intact (spatially unfiltered) faces. Uncanny elicited these were...
From October 1993 to February 1998, intraaneurysmal embolization by endovascular treatment with detachable coils was performed for 41 cases of cerebral aneurysm. As a coil, interlocking (IDC) were used in the initial 15 and Guglielmi (GDC) subsequent 26 cases. treated IDC, complete occlusion 9 cases, subtotal 4 partial 2 In one occluded coil compaction occurred 6 months after embolization. Distal emboli recognized on CT 3 however, only case symptomatic. Intra-operative bleeding case, but no...
