I like the way you move: how animate motion affects visual attention in early human infancy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
The ability to detect animates (as compared with inanimates) rapidly is advantageous for human survival. Due to its relevance, not only the adult human brain has evolved specific neural mechanisms to discriminate animates, but it has been proposed that ...

Points and Stripes: A Novel Technique for Masking Biological Motion Point-Light Stimuli

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2018
Human articulated motion can be readily recognized robustly even from impoverished so-called point-light displays. Such sequence information is processed by separate visual processing channels recruiting different stages at low and intermediate levels of

Attention, biological motion, and action recognition

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2012
Interacting with others in the environment requires that we perceive and recognize their movements and actions. Neuroimaging and neuropsychological studies have indicated that a number of brain regions, particularly the superior temporal sulcus, are involved in a number of processes essential for action recognition, including the processing of ...

Computing motion in the primate's visual system [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Computing motion on the basis of the time-varying image intensity is a difficult problem for both artificial and biological vision systems. We will show how one well-known gradient-based computer algorithm for estimating visual motion can be implemented ...

Biological motion drives perception and action

open access: yesJournal of Vision, 2010
Presenting a few dots moving coherently on a screen can yield to the perception of human motion. This perception is based on a specific network that is segregated from the traditional motion perception network and that includes the superior temporal sulcus (STS).

Cortical Dynamics of Visual Motion Perception: Short-Range and Long Range Apparent Motion [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
This article describes further evidence for a new neural network theory of biological motion perception that is called a Motion Boundary Contour System. This theory clarifies why parallel streams Vl-> V2 and Vl-> MT exist for static form and motion form ...

Visualization of the Phosphoproteomic Data from AfCS with the Google Motion Chart Gadget [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Results from multivariate molecular biological experiments become increasingly complex. Hence, the challenge of projecting high-dimensional data onto few dimensions for effective data visualization is becoming increasingly important in Systems Biology ...

Perception of Motion and Architectural Form: Computational Relationships between Optical Flow and Perspective

open access: yes, 2011
Perceptual geometry refers to the interdisciplinary research whose objectives focuses on study of geometry from the perspective of visual perception, and in turn, applies such geometric findings to the ecological study of vision.

Modality and Perceptual-Motor Experience Influence the Detection of Temporal Deviations in Tap Dance Sequences

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2017
Accurate temporal information processing is critically important in many motor activities within disciplines such as dance, music, and sport. However, it is still unclear how temporal information related to biological motion is processed by expert and ...

Contrast-Independent Biologically Inspired Motion Detection

open access: yesSensors, 2011
Optic flow, i.e., retinal image movement resulting from ego-motion, is a crucial source of information used for obstacle avoidance and course control in flying insects. Optic flow analysis may prove promising for mobile robotics although it is currently not among the standard techniques. Insects have developed a computationally cheap analysis mechanism
