Masks reveal processing time for alignment across space

چکیده

Does spatial separation incur a processing time requirement before precise alignment judgements can occur? Alignment thresholds for separated lines are measured for exposure durations from 27 to 500ms, with and without post-masks. The effect of masks on visibility is controlled. Unlike without a post-mask, with an effective post-mask, alignment thresholds improve substantially with time, i.e. in square-root fashion. Alignment across space may be important for further shape analysis. Threshold improvement is probably not explained by a spatial scale shift of visual analysis over time. A higher-order collection stage appears to refine relative position information for up to 200ms.

Image Classification via Sparse Representation and Subspace Alignment

Image representation is a crucial problem in image processing where there exist many low-level representations of image, i.e., SIFT, HOG and so on. But there is a missing link across low-level and high-level semantic representations. In fact, traditional machine learning approaches, e.g., non-negative matrix factorization, sparse representation and principle component analysis are employed to d...

Identification of BKCa channel openers by molecular field alignment and patent data-driven analysis

In this work, we present the first comprehensive molecular field analysis of patent structures on how the chemical structure of drugs impacts the biological binding. This task was formulated as searching for drug structures to reveal shared effects of substitutions across a common scaffold and the chemical features that may be responsible. We used the SureChEMBL patent database, which prov...

Generalized recovery algorithm for 3D super-resolution microscopy using rotating point spread functions

Super-resolution microscopy with phase masks is a promising technique for 3D imaging and tracking. Due to the complexity of the resultant point spread functions, generalized recovery algorithms are still missing. We introduce a 3D super-resolution recovery algorithm that works for a variety of phase masks generating 3D point spread functions. A fast deconvolution process generates initial guess...
