A Patient-Specific Computational Framework for the Argus II Implant
IEEE Open Journal of Engineering in Medicine and Biology, 2020 Goal: Retinal prosthesis performance is limited by the variability of elicited phosphenes. The stimulating electrode's position with respect to retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) affects both perceptual threshold and phosphene shape.

On the “blindness” of blindsight: What is the evidence for phenomenal awareness in the absence of primary visual cortex (V1)? [PDF]
, 2019 Blindsight has been central to theories of phenomenal awareness; that a lesion to primary visual cortex (V1) abolishes all phenomenal awareness while unconscious visual functions can remain has led to the views that this region plays in generating visual

Processing of emotional expression in subliminal and low-visibility images [PDF]
, 2013 This thesis investigated the processing of emotional stimuli by the visual system, and how the processing of emotions interacts with visual awareness. Emotions have been given ‘special’ status by some previous research, with evidence that the processing ...

Emotion Recognition with Simulated Phosphene Vision
Proceedings of the 2nd Workshop on Multimedia for Accessible Human Computer Interfaces, 2019 Electrical stimulation of retina, optic nerve or cortex is found to elicit visual sensations, known as phosphenes. This allows visual prosthetics to partially restore vision by representing the visual field as a phosphene pattern. Since the resolution and performance of visual prostheses are limited, only a fraction of the information in a visual scene
