A new code for contrast in the primate visual pathway.

Short-latency category specific neural responses to human faces in macaque inferotemporal cortex

In this article I would present evidence to show that timing of the flow of neural signals within the ventral visual stream is a crucial part of the neural code for categorization of faces. We recorded the activity of 554 inferotemporal neurons from two macaque monkeys performing a fixation task. More than 1000 object images including human and non-primate animal faces were presented up to 10 t...

A neural-based code for computing image velocity from small sets of middle temporal (MT/V5) neuron inputs.

It is still not known how the primate visual system is able to measure the velocity of moving stimuli such as edges and dots. Neurons have been found in the Medial Superior Temporal (MST) area of the primate brain that respond at a rate proportional to the speed of the stimulus but it is not clear how this property is derived from the speed-tuned Middle Temporal (MT) neurons that precede area M...

A Quantitative Investigation on the Effect of Edge Enhancement for Improving Visual Acuity at Different Levels of Contrast

Background: The major limitation in human vision is refractive error. Auxiliary equipment and methods for these people are not always available. In addition, limited range of accommodation in adult people when switching from a far point to a near point is not simply possible. In this paper, we are looking for solutions to use the facilities of digital image processing and displaying to improve ...

Detection, Cloning, Molecular Characterization and Phylogenic Analyses of a New Primate T-Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type I in Olive Baboon

Steganography Scheme Based on Reed-Muller Code with Improving Payload and Ability to Retrieval of Destroyed Data for Digital Images

In this paper, a new steganography scheme with high embedding payload and good visual quality is presented. Before embedding process, secret information is encoded as block using Reed-Muller error correction code. After data encoding and embedding into the low-order bits of host image, modulus function is used to increase visual quality of stego image. Since the proposed method is able to embed...
