1, 10-Phenanthroline (phen) is one of the most popular ligands ever used in coordination
chemistry due to its strong affinity for a wide range of metals with various oxidation states. Its …

Amblyopia is a reduction of visual functions that cannot be attributed directly to the effect of
any structural abnormality of the eye or the posterior visual pathway. It is caused by …

Task-specific improvement in performance after training is well established. The finding that
learning is stimulus-specific and does not transfer well between different stimuli, between …

Neurons in primary visual cortex, V1, very often have extraclassical receptive fields (eCRFs).
The eCRF is defined as the region of visual space where stimuli cannot elicit a spiking …

Masking and crowding are major phenomena associated with contextual modulations, but
the relationship between them remains unclear. We have recently shown that crowding is …

Previous studies have generally estimated that two independent channels underlie human
temporal vision: one broad and low-pass, the other high, and band-pass. We confirm this …

Computational models of visual attention have replicated a large number of data from visual
attention experiments. However, typically each computational model has been shown to …

T emporal masking is a paradigm that is widely used to study visual information processing.
When a mask is presented, typically within less than 100 msec before or after the target, the …

Low-contrast visual contour fragments are easier to detect when presented in the context of
nearby collinear contour elements (U. Polat & D. Sagi, 1993). The spatial and temporal …

Perceptual grouping of the bounding contours of objects is a crucial step in visual scene
understanding and object recognition. The standard perceptual model for this task …
