There is recent evidence that both linear and non-linear filtering operations subserve stereoscopic localization. For example, for spatially band-pass stimuli, the overall Gaussian envelope, which is not explicitly represented by the output of linear filters, can provide coarse disparity information. Here we ask three questions about the nature of this non-linear processing in stereopsis. First...

We consider a coupled system of two singularly perturbed reaction-diffusion equations, with two small parameters 0 < ε ≤ μ ≤ 1, each multiplying the highest derivative in the equations. The presence of these parameters causes the solution(s) to have boundary layers which overlap and interact, based on the relative size of ε and μ. We show how one can construct full asymptotic expansions togethe...

Contrast thresholds for stereoscopic depth identification (crossed or uncrossed) were measured as a function of disparity by use of isoluminant (red-green) and isochromatic (yellow-black) 0.5 cycles/deg Gabor patches. For the purposes of comparison, stimulus contrasts were scaled by their respective detection thresholds. The Gabor patches could be either vertically or horizontally oriented. It ...

background the importance of proper qualitative evaluation of eeg parameters during surgery has been recognized since many years. although none of the characteristics based on the frequency, entropy, and bi spectral characteristics have been regarded as a good predictor for detection of the depth of anesthesia alone. so it seems necessary to study multiple characteristics together. objectives i...
