identification of spatial-temporal anomalies sea level pressure in iran was the main aim in this research. for this purpose six hourly data used from the to eastern longitude and to northern latitude. in this location, there are 825 pixels to geographical degree. therefore, database extent created. in this matrix, 825 are number of the pixels at that location and 90520 is number of six hourly s...

The Craik-O'Brien-Cornsweet effect (COCE) is a visual illusion in which a difference in brightness is observed between two regions of equal luminance separated by a contrast edge with opposite luminance gradients on each side. The COCE also occurs with chromatic contrasts. It has been hypothesized that the COCE is mediated by a cortical filling-in process. According to the filling-in hypothesis...

It is shown numerically and analytically that when an optical pulse approaches a moving temporal boundary across which the refractive index changes, it undergoes a temporal equivalent of reflection and refraction of optical beams at a spatial boundary. The main difference is that the role of angles is played by changes in the frequency. The frequency dependence of the dispersion of the material...

It has often been postulated that asymmetries in performance within the visual field (VF) are not characteristic of early visual processing. Here, human retinal (naso/temporal), cortical (left/right) and superior/inferior patterns of asymmetry were explored with achromatic contrast sensitivity (CS) tasks, that probed distinct spatiotemporal frequency channels. Low spatial, high temporal frequen...

An assemblage of individual motoneurons constituting a synthetic motoneuron pool has been studied from the standpoint of relating monosynaptic reflex responses to frequency of afferent stimulation. Intensity of low frequency depression is not a simple function of transmitter potentiality. As frequency of stimulation increases from 3 per minute to 10 per second, low frequency depression increase...

Neural activity underlying odor representations in the mammalian olfactory system is strongly patterned by respiratory behavior. These dynamics are central to many models of olfactory information processing. We have found previously that sensory inputs to the olfactory bulb change both their magnitude and temporal structure as a function of sniff frequency. Here, we ask how sniff frequency affe...

Evidence suggests that scalp-recorded occipital alpha-band (8-13 Hz) oscillations reflect phasic information transfer in thalamocortical neurons projecting from lateral geniculate nucleus to visual cortex. In animals, the phase of ongoing alpha oscillations has been shown to modulate stimulus discrimination and neuronal spiking. Human research has shown that alpha phase predicts visual percepti...

This study investigated whether the stereoscopic (cyclopean) motion aftereffect (induced by adaptation to moving binocular disparity information) is dependent upon the temporal frequency or speed of adapting motion. The stereoscopic stimuli were gratings created from disparity embedded in a dynamic random-dot stereogram. Across different combinations of stereoscopic spatial frequency, temporal ...
