A Position Encoding Convolutional Neural Network Based on Dependency Tree for Relation Classification

With the renaissance of neural network in recent years, relation classification has again become a research hotspot in natural language processing, and leveraging parse trees is a common and effective method of tackling this problem. In this work, we offer a new perspective on utilizing syntactic information of dependency parse tree and present a position encoding convolutional neural network (...

A Preference for Phase-Based Disparity in a Neuromorphic Implementation of the Binocular Energy Model

The relative depth of objects causes small shifts in the left and right retinal positions of these objects, called binocular disparity. This letter describes an electronic implementation of a single binocularly tuned complex cell based on the binocular energy model, which has been proposed to model disparity-tuned complex cells in the mammalian primary visual cortex. Our system consists of two ...

Neural mechanisms for encoding binocular disparity: receptive field position vs. phase

The visual system utilizes binocular disparity to discriminate the relative depth of objects in space. Since the striate cortex is the first site along the central visual pathways at which signals from the left and right eyes converge onto a single neuron, encoding of binocular disparity is thought to begin in this region. There are two possible mechanisms for encoding binocular disparity throu...

Eye position encoding in the macaque posterior parietal cortex.

In two previous studies, we had demonstrated the influence of eye position on neuronal discharges in the middle temporal area, medial superior temporal area, lateral intraparietal area and area 7A of the awake monkey (Bremmer et al., 1997a,b). Eye position effects also have been found in visual cortical areas V3A and V6 and even in the premotor cortex and the supplementary eye field. These effe...
