Reciprocal Influence between R-V Dynamics Illusion and Size-Weight Illusion in Mixed Reality Space Yuta Kataoka, Ayumi Nishikawa, Satoshi Hashiguchi, Fumihisa Shibata, and Asako Kimura Abstract The aim of this paper is to reveal the influence that the two illusions: “R-V Dynamics Illusion” and “Size-Weight Illusion” have on each other in mixed reality space. R-V Dynamics Illusion is an illusion...

Recent discourse in archaeological theory has highlighted that the discipline’s approach to existence and materiality is firmly entrenched in traditions of modern thought (Thomas 1996, 2004; Tilley 2004). It has also been shown that archaeological methodology has a tendency to be used as an interpretative metaphor by other modern disciplines in the description of their own methodologies (Miller...

In this study, we report a new visual shape illusion, the eggs illusion, in which circular disks located at the midpoints between adjacent grid intersections are perceived as being deformed to ellipses. In Experiment 1, we examined the eggs illusion by using a matching method and found that grid luminance and patch size play a critical role in producing the illusory deformation. In Experiment 2...

Abstract Many moral error theorists reject realism on the grounds that implies existence of categorical normativity, yet normativity does not exist. Call this Metaphysical Argument. In response, some realists have emphasized a parity between and epistemic normativity. They argue if one kind is rejected, then both must be rejected. Therefore, cannot theorist without also being an theorist. Parit...

Human infants display complex categoriztion abilities. Results from studies of visual preference, object examination, conditioned leg-kicking, sequential touching, and generalized imitation reveal different patterns of category formation, with different levels of exclusivity in the category representations formed by infants at different ages. We suggest that differences in levels of exclusivity...

Contemporary capitalism is often described as a economical system based on knowledge, whats indicate a shift from material production to more intangible assets related to exchange, control and circulation. It is strictly connected with something what we can define as a 'language (or communicative) turn' in debate on contemporary city, and particularly on public space. Architects and many urban ...

It is a fundamental problem in physics of what principle limits the correlations as predicted by our current description of nature, based on quantum mechanics. One possible explanation is the "global exclusivity" principle recently discussed in Phys. Rev. Lett. 110, 060402 (2013). In this work we show that this principle actually has a much stronger restriction on the probability distribution. ...
