The role of amodal surface completion in stereoscopic transparency
Previous work has shown that the visual system can decompose stereoscopic textures into percepts of inhomogeneous transparency. We investigate whether this form of layered image decomposition is shaped by constraints on amodal surface completion.

Touch Supports Word Segmentation More Than Statistics But is Not Mediated by Attention
ABSTRACT Multisensory information is integral to infants' language experiences and research has suggested that infants can use multisensory cues to support their segmentation of wordforms continuous speech. However, the role of multisensory cues in wordform segmentation compared to that of cues present in the acoustic stream alone (e.g., transitional ...

Dubious Claims about Simplicity and Likelihood: Comment on Pinna and Conti (2019)
Pinna and Conti (Brain Sci., 2019, 9, 149, doi:10.3390/brainsci9060149) presented phenomena concerning the salience and role of contrast polarity in human visual perception, particularly in amodal completion.

Black in Impressionism and Post‐Impressionism: Art, Color Vision, and Psychophysics
Black has engendered controversy in 19th Century color theory and in Impressionist and Post‐Impresssionist painting. The neural mechanisms of blackness perception are being revealed through contemporary psychophysics. ABSTRACT From Paleolithic cave art to modern abstraction, artists have used black not merely as a neutral tone, but as a powerful ...

Numerical cognition arises from conserved mechanisms linking genes, neural circuits and behaviour. Using zebrafish as a tractable model, behavioural assays, whole‐brain imaging and genetic analyses can be integrated to identify neural and molecular bases of quantity discrimination. This framework provides a platform for studying numerical cognition and

Abstract Reports of patients with impaired verbal short‐term memory are central to the debate of whether there are independent short‐term stores or whether immediate repetition is supported by activated long‐term memory. Patients with selective impairments of verbal short‐term memory support models with independent buffers.

Haptic Experiences Shift Students' Representational Gestures and Knowledge Resources
ABSTRACT The present investigation adopts an embodied cognition perspective to characterize students' learning interactions between gesture and haptic experience. Haptic technologies have emerged as a promising approach to science learning because they can simulate physical forces that students would otherwise not experience. Student‐generated gestures

The rhythm of sensory input shapes audio‐visual temporal processing
Abstract The temporal relationship between incoming signals is crucial in determining whether multisensory information is integrated into unitary percepts. Temporal binding windows (TBWs) define the time range within which multisensory inputs are highly likely to be perceptually integrated, even if asynchronous.

In the InCHORRRuS (Infant‐directed (ID) Communication Highlights and Organizes Repetition and Redundancy through Rhythmic Structure) framework, increased rhythmicity in ID speech and the beat‐based metrically structured rhythmicity in ID song naturally organize the multimodally redundant and repetitive cues in the caregiver's communicative signals ...

Stay Local or Go Global: Geo‐Referenced Bounding Boxes for Tracking Wildlife in Thermal Drone Videos
An overview of the geo‐referenced drone‐based detection and tracking pipeline is presented. The workflow begins with flight execution, including mission planning, control, RTK‐based positioning and image metadata acquisition. In the pre‐processing stage, video synchronisation, frame extraction and camera‐calibration‐based undistortion are performed ...
