Visual search in an important aspect of many tasks, but it not well understood how layout design affects visual search. This research uses reaction time data, eye movement data, and computational cognitive modeling to investigate the effect of local density on the visual search of structured layouts of words. Layouts were all-sparse, all-dense, or mixed. Participants found targets in sparse gro...

Visual attention is the ability to rapidly detect the visually salient parts of a given scene on which higher level vision tasks, such as object recognition, can focus. Found in biological vision, this mechanism represents a fundamental tool for computer vision. This paper reports the first real-time implementation of the complete visual attention mechanism on a compact and low-power architectu...

Abstract It is difficult to estimate the boundaries of hazard zones generated around autonomous machines and robots when navigating a space shared with them. We investigated use multimodal (auditory and/or visual) mixed-reality (MR) displays warn users about invading such hazards help them return safety. Two single-modality auditory visual were designed, which subjectively comparable as generic...

Background: Despite the potential benefits of virtual reality technology in physical rehabilitation, only a few studies have evaluated the efficacy of this type of treatment in patients with neck pain.Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the effects of virtual reality training (VRT) versus conventional proprioceptive training (CPT) in patients with neck pain.Methods: Forty four parti...

Background: Neuromarketing ethical issues are debatable from two perspectives:  First, the effect that ethics has on consumer behavior through sensory, emotional, and emotional foundations of neuromarketing. Second, there are challenges in using neuromarketing and the need to codify ethical standards. The purpose of this study was to present a model of ethical dimensions of neuromarketing to at...

according to reports about 30-thousand people spent watching television had the impact on their memory and recall that the results showed no differences between men and women. the people who watched less than an hour a day did better at every memory function. as these contributors watched negative political ads, physiological responses indicated that their body was reflexively preparing to move...

The "many-to-many" hypothesis proposes that visual object processing is supported by distributed circuits that overlap for different object categories. For faces and words the hypothesis posits that both posterior fusiform regions contribute to both face and visual word perception and predicts that unilateral lesions impairing one will affect the other. However, studies testing this hypothesis ...

Human visual system is partially adapted to the CRT monitor’s white point and partially to the ambient light, when comparing a soft-copy image with the reproduced hard-copy image. The visual experiments were performed on the effect of the ambient lighting under mixed chromatic adaptation. It was found that human visual system is 40% to 60% adapted to CRT monitor’s white point and the rest to th...
