Embodied Information Processing: Vibrissa Mechanics and Texture Features Shape Micromotions in Actively Sensing Rats
Peripheral sensory organs provide the first transformation of sensory information, and understanding how their physical embodiment shapes transduction is central to understanding perception. We report the characterization of surface transduction during active sensing in the rodent vibrissa sensory system, a widely used model. Employing high-speed videography, we tracked vibrissae while rats sam...
متن کاملResponse to Letter: Ritt et al., “Embodied Information Processing: Vibrissa Mechanics and Texture Features Shape Micromotions in Actively Sensing Rats.” Neuron 57, 599–613
Sensory signals generated during free behavior are shaped by objects in the world, the animal’s active sensing choices, and the innate construction, or embodiment, of the sensory system. Together these constitute the ‘‘natural scene’’ of sensory inputs. Our study (Ritt et al., 2008) was the first to measure the fine-scale signals transmitted through vibrissae while animals freely explored textu...
متن کاملParallel processing of shape and texture in haptic search.
In a haptic search task, one has to determine the presence of a target among distractors. It has been shown that if the target differs from the distractors in two properties, shape and texture, performance is better than in both single-property conditions (Van Polanen, Bergmann Tiest, & Kappers, 2013). The search for a smooth sphere among rough cubical distractors was faster than both the searc...
متن کاملDate fruits classification using texture descriptors and shape-size features
In this paper, we proposed a system of automatically classifying different types of dates from their images. Different dates have various distinguished features that can be useful to recognize a particular date. These features include color, texture, and shape. In the proposed system, a color image of a date is decomposed into its color components. Then, local texture descriptor in the form of ...
متن کاملLeaf Classification Using Shape, Color, and Texture Features
Several methods to identify plants have been proposed by several researchers. Commonly, the methods did not capture color information, because color was not recognized as an important aspect to the identification. In this research, shape and vein, color, and texture features were incorporated to classify a leaf. In this case, a neural network called Probabilistic Neural network (PNN) was used a...
