Frontiers in Visual Science
Author: Steven J. Cool
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3540353976
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 811
Book Description
The papers included in this volume were presented as a part of the dedication of a new clinical/teaching/research facility for the University of Houston College of Optometry, March 27-31, 1977. These papers were intended to cover the "state of the art" knowledge in all areas of visual system investigation. While we may not have quite reached our goal of covering all areas, the papers presented here cover a broad cross-section of investigations in vision. However, without doubt, the intention of "state of the art" coverage was achieved in all areas discussed. From the beginning, with the presentation of Nobel Laureate, Ragnar Granit, to the end, with consideration of Vision Health Care Delivery Systems, each speaker was thorough in treatment of his/her subject. From studies of the ~ and of contact lenses, through examination of crystalline lens function, ocular pathologies and retina! function, the eye is very thoroughly considered. Much of this volume covers material dealing with the process of vision after coding of information in the eye. Psychophysical studies of vision compare and contrast with neurophysiological studies of v1sual function; and a very thorough section on the development of visual system function should prove valuable to a wide cross section of teachers, researchers, and clinicians. All-in-all, the contents of this volume represent a vast array of knowledge about the visual system, and this should be a valuable teaching/research resource for many years.

Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 400
Book Description
The Migraine Brain provides a general overview of the history of migraine, its pathophysiology, as well as in-depth details on the Clinical Perspectives and the different imaging techniques in use (MR, fMRI, DTI, VBM, PET, fMRI, and MEG). It also includes details on modulation of the brain using such techniques as TMS. The book concludes with a discussion of future uses of imaging in the diagnosis and treatment of migraines and other headaches.

Multimedia for Accessible Human Computer Interfaces
Author: Troy McDaniel
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030707164
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 311
Book Description
The book Multimedia for Accessible Human Computer Interfaces is to be the first resource to provide in-depth coverage on topical areas of multimedia computing (images, video, audio, speech, haptics, VR/AR, etc.) for accessible and inclusive human computer interfaces. Topics are grouped into thematic areas spanning the human senses: Vision, Hearing, Touch, as well as Multimodal applications. Each chapter is written by different multimedia researchers to provide complementary and multidisciplinary perspectives. Unlike other related books, which focus on guidelines for designing accessible interfaces, or are dated in their coverage of cutting edge multimedia technologies, Multimedia for Accessible Human Computer Interfaces takes an application-oriented approach to present a tour of how the field of multimedia is advancing access to human computer interfaces for individuals with disabilities. Under Theme 1 “Vision-based Technologies for Accessible Human Computer Interfaces”, multimedia technologies to enhance access to interfaces through vision will be presented including: “A Framework for Gaze-contingent Interfaces”, “Sign Language Recognition”, “Fusion-based Image Enhancement and its Applications in Mobile Devices”, and “Open-domain Textual Question Answering Systems”. Under Theme 2 “Auditory Technologies for Accessible Human Computer Interfaces”, multimedia technologies to enhance access to interfaces through hearing will be presented including: “Speech Recognition for Individuals with Voice Disorders” and “Socially Assistive Robots for Storytelling and Other Activities to Support Aging in Place”. Under Theme 3 “Haptic Technologies for Accessible Human Computer Interfaces”, multimedia technologies to enhance access to interfaces through haptics will be presented including: “Accessible Smart Coaching Technologies Inspired by Elderly Requisites” and “Haptic Mediators for Remote Interpersonal Communication”. Under Theme 4 “Multimodal Technologies for Accessible Human Computer Interfaces”, multimedia technologies to enhance access to interfaces through multiple modalities will be presented including: “Human-Machine Interfaces for Socially Connected Devices: From Smart Households to Smart Cities” and “Enhancing Situational Awareness and Kinesthetic Assistance for Clinicians via Augmented-Reality and Haptic Shared-Control Technologies”.

Purkinje's Vision
Author: Nicholas J. Wade
Publisher: Psychology Press
ISBN: 1135656401
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
The life of Jan Evangelista Purkinje (1787-1869) has fascinated students from many disciplines. Histologists marvel at his early descriptions of cells; physiologists admire his attempts to relate structure to function; pharmacologists view in awe his heroic experiments on self-administered drugs; forensic scientists acknowledge his role in the use of fingerprints for identification; and Czech patriots salute his awakening of pride in their nation. Yet all these achievements followed his initial enquiries into vision. It is this psychological dimension that fostered this collaboration. As the title suggests, the present volume is bifocal. In the narrow sense it refers to Purkinje's studies of vision, but in its broader view it concerns Purkinje's anticipation of neuroscience. Purkinje provided evidence to support both its cellular and its conceptual base. At the cellular level his acute vision is immortalized within our bodies. At the conceptual level, he sought to relate subjective phenomena to their objective underpinnings--to link psychology to physiology. Vision provides a bond that unites psychology and physiology, and it is this bond that was strengthened by Purkinje's enquiries. The authors have tried to provide a context in which Purkinje's descriptions of visual phenomena can be placed. In some cases this exposes clear precursors of research for which Purkinje has been credited. In others, there was nothing to suggest the phenomena that he exposed. The book translates Purkinje's initial masterpiece on subjective vision and places it in the context of emerging views of neuroscience.
