Abstract of A visual model of collective behavior in crowds, by Gregory C. Dachner, Ph.D., Brown University, May 2021. Collective motion in human crowds emerges …
The present experiments investigated the influence of energetic cost of walking to a target on both the visually perceived egocentric distance of the target and …
On-line control and model-based control are two general approaches to visual control of human actions. When intercepting a moving target, humans appear to use the …
Abstract of Self-Organization in Human Crowds: The Transition from Averaging to Competition, by Trenton D. Wirth, Ph.D., Brown University, May 2021 The collective motion of …
Adaptation can have an immediate effect on the subsequently viewed stimuli; discrimination thresholds decrease at the adapted stimulus orientation and increase for orientations away from …
This dissertation critically examined the structure of human spatial knowledge by testing three general hypotheses: the Euclidean, Topological, and Stability Hypotheses. The present experiments selectively …
Visual Perceptual Learning (VPL) refers to a long-term enhancement in visual task performance as a result of visual experience. The mechanisms of VPL is constantly …
In this thesis we begin to articulate a computational theory that provides a neuronal-leveldescription of the macro-level function of the visual system, and we propose …
