Inner space: Reference frames
How are we aware of our surroundings? Somehow, from a pair of tiny, two-dimensional pictures of the visual world – provided by our retinas – our brains are able to render the world as it is, accurately depicting the locations of both a distant mountain range and the camera we are pointing at it. To understand how space is represented in the brain, neurophysiologists have borrowed the useful con...
متن کاملFrames in 2-inner Product Spaces
In this paper, we introduce the notion of a frame in a 2- inner product space and give some characterizations. These frames can be considered as a usual frame in a Hilbert space, so they share many useful properties with frames.

This has led some researcher to challenge longstandin...
متن کاملPerception of Space by Multiple Intrinsic Frames of Reference
It has been documented that when memorizing a physical space, the person's mental representation of that space is biased with distortion and segmentation. Two experiments reported here suggest that distortion and segmentation arise due to a hierarchical organization of the spatial representation. The spatial relations associated with salient landmarks are more strongly encoded and easier to rec...
