Discerning Parallax Amplitude in Astrometric Microlensing
Gravitational microlensing is a powerful method for discovering isolated stellar-mass black holes (ISMBHs). These objects make long-duration microlensing events.

Parallax Theology: Reframing Compensation Theodicy
The reality of suffering and the existence of natural and moral evils appear to present significant obstacles to the doctrine of God’s omnipotence, omniscience, and omnibenevolence. Theodicy is an attempt to resolve the problem of evil.

Lutz-Kelker bias in pulsar parallax measurements [PDF]
Lutz & Kelker showed that parallax measurements are systematically overestimated because they do not properly account for the larger volume of space that is sampled at smaller parallax values.

EyePACT: eye-based parallax correction on touch-enabled interactive displays [PDF]
The parallax effect describes the displacement between the perceived and detected touch locations on a touch-enabled surface. Parallax is a key usability challenge for interactive displays, particularly for those that require thick layers of glass ...

Will Self’s Parallactic Urban/Land-scapes in Walking to Hollywood
This paper addresses the complex relation of identity to site in Walking to Hollywood: Memories Before the Fall. In keeping with the idea of a cityscape rather experienced than observed or depicted from a distance, the analysis of scale, proportions and ...

Narcissus and the Moon: Parallax in Early Modern Images
This essay develops a comprehensive approach to the study of parallax effects in early modern images, with critical emphasis on painting. Parallax is the apparent displacement of an object relative to a given background, as caused by the movement of the ...

Stereo and motion parallax cues in human 3D vision: can they vanish without a trace? [PDF]
In an immersive virtual reality environment, subjects fail to notice when a scene expands or contracts around them, despite correct and consistent information from binocular stereopsis and motion parallax, resulting in gross failures of size constancy (A.

Parallax-Robust Surveillance Video Stitching
This paper presents a parallax-robust video stitching technique for timely synchronized surveillance video. An efficient two-stage video stitching procedure is proposed in this paper to build wide Field-of-View (FOV) videos for surveillance applications.

Aircraft and Ship Velocity Determination in Sentinel-2 Multispectral Images
The Sentinel-2 satellites in the Copernicus program provide high resolution multispectral images, which are recorded with temporal offsets up to 2.6 s. Moving aircrafts and ships are therefore observed at different positions due to the multispectral band
