The Meaning Potential of Motion Vectors in Cinema
This paper examines the meaning potential of directed forces or vectors in cinema. The first part draws on the pioneering work of Rudolf Arnheim to highlight the prominent role of vectors in the visual structuring of meaning in paintings.

Directionality and Resultativity: The Cross-linguistic Correlation Revisited
Recent approaches to the cross-linguistic variation in the expressions of directed motion assume a tight correlation between adjectival resultative and directed motion constructions (e.g., Beck and Snyder 2001, Mateu and Rigau 2001; 2002, McIntyre 2004 ...

Cytoskeletal dependence of insulin granule movement dynamics in INS-1 beta-cells in response to glucose. [PDF]
For pancreatic β-cells to secrete insulin in response to elevated blood glucose, insulin granules retained within the subplasmalemmal space must be transported to sites of secretion on the plasma membrane.

An Extended Normalization Model of Attention Accounts for Feature-Based Attentional Enhancement of Both Response and Coherence Gain. [PDF]
Paying attention to a sensory feature improves its perception and impairs that of others. Recent work has shown that a Normalization Model of Attention (NMoA) can account for a wide range of physiological findings and the influence of different ...

An Algorithm for Motion Parameter Direct Estimate [PDF]
Motion estimation in image sequences is undoubtedly one of the most studied research fields, given that motion estimation is a basic tool for disparate applications, ranging from video coding to pattern recognition. In this paper a new methodology which, by minimizing a specific potential function, directly determines for each image pixel the motion ...

A Regulatory Switch Alters Chromosome Motions at the Metaphase-to-Anaphase Transition
To achieve chromosome segregation during mitosis, sister chromatids must undergo a dramatic change in their behavior to switch from balanced oscillations at the metaphase plate to directed poleward motion during anaphase.

Spatial attention is attracted in a sustained fashion toward singular points in the optic flow. [PDF]
While a single approaching object is known to attract spatial attention, it is unknown how attention is directed when the background looms towards the observer as s/he moves forward in a quasi-stationary environment.

Protrusion Fluctuations Direct Cell Motion [PDF]
Many physiological phenomena involve directional cell migration. It is usually attributed to chemical gradients in vivo. Recently, other cues have been shown to guide cells in vitro, including stiffness/adhesion gradients or micro-patterned adhesive motifs.
