Glimpse Making

In the Glimpse of an Eye: Decision Making and Vision

Rapid visual search, depending on iconic memory, is a core but controversial psychophysical topic. A key example is the claim by Horowitz & Wolfe (1998a) that ‘visual search has no memory. Their evidence is the effect of increasing search set size in a letter identification task. Search time per item was unimpaired when all letters were randomly relocated during the search. This paper presents ...

Addendum: GLIMPSE Validation Report

In our Validation Report of Jan. 30, 2004, we produced reliability calculations and discussed photometric accuracy estimates based on Observing Strategy Validation (OSV) data and an early version of the GLIMPSE post-BCD pipeline reduction package. We showed that GLIMPSE could produce a catalog of point sources with reliability ≥99.5% and photometric accuracies better than 0.2 mag in all IRAC ba...

Biometrics in a Glimpse

A glimpse into crabworld

Almost all known arthropod compound eyes exhibit regional variations of resolving power, absolute light, spectral and polarisation sensitivity which are likely to be matched to the probability of significant events and the availability of cues in the visual world. To understand the signal processing requirements that have led to the evolution of matched sensory and neural filters, we thus need ...

GLIMPSE - A Statistical Adventure

This paper describes advances in the development of a know ledge-based front-end for the s ta t is t ics package GLIM 3.77, employing logic programming methods and tools, including sigmaPR0L0G and APES. The domain of application computer-based s ta t i s t i ca l analysis requires that a changing knowledge base be handled by the system, GLIMPSE*. The developing system is suitable for users with...
