Evidence for Reduced Sensory Precision and Increased Reliance on Priors in Hallucination-Prone Individuals in a General Population Sample [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
There is increasing evidence that people with hallucinations overweight perceptual beliefs relative to incoming sensory evidence. Much past work demonstrating prior overweighting has used simple, non-linguistic stimuli. However, auditory hallucinations in psychosis are often complex and linguistic.

Disturbances in Influence of a Shepherding Agent is More Impactful than Sensorial Noise During Swarm Guidance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The guidance of a large swarm is a challenging control problem. Shepherding offers one approach to guide a large swarm using a few shepherding agents (sheepdogs). While noise is an inherent characteristic in many real-world problems, the impact of noise on shepherding is not a well-studied problem. We study two forms of noise.

Enhancing the Matrix Addressing of Flexible Sensory Arrays by a Highly Nonlinear Threshold Switch

open access: yesAdvances in Materials, 2018
The increasing need for smart systems in healthcare, wearable, and soft robotics is creating demand for low‐power sensory circuits that can detect pressure, temperature, strain, and other local variables.

Evaluation of an EPID in vivo monitoring system using local and external independent audit measurements

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Purpose The aim of this work was to evaluate the SunCHECK PerFRACTION, the software for in vivo monitoring using EPID images. Materials/Methods First, the PerFRACTION ability to detect errors was investigated simulating two situations: (1) variation of LINAC output and (2) variation of the phantom thickness.

Unilateral Brachial Plexus Lesion Impairs Bilateral Touch Threshold

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2019
Unilateral brachial plexus injury (BPI) impairs sensory and motor functions of the upper limb. This study aimed to map in detail brachial plexus sensory impairment both in the injured and the uninjured upper limb.

Fault-tolerant Control of Robot Manipulators with Sensory Faults using Unbiased Active Inference [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
This work presents a novel fault-tolerant control scheme based on active inference. Specifically, a new formulation of active inference which, unlike previous solutions, provides unbiased state estimation and simplifies the definition of probabilistically robust thresholds for fault-tolerant control of robotic systems using the free-energy.

The effects of nitrous oxide upon sensory thresholds [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Anaesthetists’ Society Journal, 1960
1. Sensory thresholds have been measured in human subjects while breathing 25 per cent nitrous oxide in oxygen. 2. Nitrous oxide produced a significant and sometimes dramatic increase in the thresholds for touch, skin pain, warmth, vision, and hearing. 3.

Sensory-specific impairment among older people. An investigation using both sensory thresholds and subjective measures across the five senses. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Age-related sensory impairment is a slow and gradual progress, which affects multiple modalities. Two contradictory hypotheses exist about the age-related decline of sensory thresholds.
