Leftward Deviation and Asymmetric Speed of Egocentric Judgment between Left and Right Visual Fields
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017 The egocentric reference frame is essential for body orientation and spatial localization of external objects. Recent neuroimaging and lesion studies have revealed that the right hemisphere of humans may play a more dominant role in processing egocentric

Spatial hyperschematia without spatial neglect after insulo-thalamic disconnection. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Different spatial representations are not stored as a single multipurpose map in the brain. Right brain-damaged patients can show a distortion, a compression of peripersonal and extrapersonal space.

Real‐Time Behavior Recognition Using a Legged Robot for Animal–Robot Interaction
Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Animal–robot interaction is an emerging interdisciplinary field that explores the dynamics between animals and robotic systems, as well as the design principles for effective engagement. While previous approaches have investigated animal responses to robotic stimuli, they have yet to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) for real‐time ...

Effect of painful and non-painful sensorimotor manipulations on subjective body midline
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013 Patients with chronic pain often show disturbances in their body perception. Understanding the exact role played by pain is however complex, as confounding factors can contribute to the observed deficits in these clinical populations.

Both symbolic and embodied representations contribute to spatial language processing: Evidence from younger and older adults [PDF]
, 2015 Building on earlier neuropsychological work, we adopted a novel individual differences approach to examine the relationship between spatial language and a wide range of both verbal and nonverbal abilities.

More than skin deep: body representation beyond primary somatosensory cortex [PDF]
, 2010 The neural circuits underlying initial sensory processing of somatic information are relatively well understood. In contrast, the processes that go beyond primary somatosensation to create more abstract representations related to the body are less clear.

Can Happiness Be Sustainable? Monitoring Global Consumption Footprints From 2015 to 2024
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Understanding how happiness relates to resource consumption requires considering not only domestic environmental impacts but also the broader transnational effects embedded in global trade. To address this gap, this study introduces the Consumption Footprint–Happiness Ratio (CHR), a visual analytic metric that captures the intensity of ...

Entorhinal-retrosplenial circuits for allocentric-egocentric transformation of boundary coding
eLife, 2020 Spatial navigation requires landmark coding from two perspectives, relying on viewpoint-invariant and self-referenced representations. The brain encodes information within each reference frame but their interactions and functional dependency remains ...
