Density-of-states similarity descriptor for unsupervised learning from materials data
We develop a materials descriptor based on the electronic density-of-states (DOS) and investigate the similarity of materials based on it. As an application example, we study the Computational 2D Materials Database (C2DB) that hosts thousands of two ...

Binocular coordination of saccades: development, aging and cerebral substrate
The origin of binocular coordination of saccades (central, peripheral) and the role of learning remain controversial (Hering vs Helmholtz). We will present evidence for learning: in young children (5 years) horizontal saccades are poorly yoked ...

Binocular coordination during smooth pursuit in dyslexia: a multiple case study
Smooth pursuit (SP) was explored in dyslexics and non-dyslexics. Dyslexic children show similar gain of SP, and number and amplitude of catch-up saccades (CUS) as non-dyslexic children.

Effects of aging on regular and express latencies of vergence
Vergence eye movements are frequent in every day life and important for depth perception. Yet, studies of vergence in elderly are rare. We examined convergence and divergence between targets placed along median line at 20, 40 or 150cm.
