Weak ergodicity breaking of receptor motion in living cells stemming from random diffusivity [PDF]
Molecular transport in living systems regulates numerous processes underlying biological function. Although many cellular components exhibit anomalous diffusion, only recently has the subdiffusive motion been associated with nonergodic behavior.

The recognition of familiar individuals relies not only on static features of the person but also on dynamic characteristics unique to each person’s movements.

Amblyopic perception of biological motion
Although a number of low-level visual deficits in amblyopia have been identified, it is still unclear to what extent these deficits extend throughout the visual processing hierarchy. Biological motion perception can be a useful measure of local and global visual processing since the point-light stimuli that are often used to study this ability carry ...

Postural reactions can be influenced by concomitant tasks or different contexts and are modulated by a higher order motor control. Recent studies investigated postural changes determined by motor contagion induced by action observation (chameleon effect)

Computing optical flow in the primate visual system [PDF]
Computing motion on the basis of the time-varying image intensity is a difficult problem for both artificial and biological vision systems. We show how gradient models, a well-known class of motion algorithms, can be implemented within the magnocellular ...

Adaptation to biological motion leads to a motion and a form aftereffect [PDF]
Recent models have proposed a two-stage process of biological motion recognition. First, template or snapshot neurons estimate the body form. Then, motion is estimated from body form change. This predicts separate aftereffects for body form and body motion. We tested this prediction.

Perception of animate motion in dogs
Various motion cues can lead to the perception of animacy, including (1) simple motion characteristics such as starting to move from rest, (2) motion patterns of interactions like chasing, or (3) the motion of point-lights representing the joints of a ...

Local Dot Motion, Not Global Configuration, Determines Dogs’ Preference for Point-Light Displays
Visual perception remains an understudied area of dog cognition, particularly the perception of biological motion where the small amount of previous research has created an unclear impression regarding dogs’ visual preference towards different ...

Scaling and Intermittency in Animal Behavior [PDF]
Scale-invariant spatial or temporal patterns and L\'evy flight motion have been observed in a large variety of biological systems. It has been argued that animals in general might perform L\'evy flight motion with power law distribution of times between ...

Motion of Interfaces in Biological Systems
Interfaces might be characterised by properties such as energy per area, speed, width and interaction with inhomogeneities which may impede or accelerate their motion. We consider advancing tumour and apoptosis fronts as examples. We also consider boundaries which separate regions where cells cycles are synchronised from regions where they are ...
