Human Vection Perception Using Inertial Nulling and Certainty Estimation: The Effect of Migraine History. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Vection is an illusory perception of self-motion that can occur when visual motion fills the majority of the visual field. This study examines the effect of the duration of visual field movement (VFM) on the perceived strength of self-motion using an ...

Multimodal Representation of Space in the Posterior Parietal Cortex and its use in Planning Movements [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Recent experiments are reviewed that indicate that sensory signals from many modalities, as well as efference copy signals from motor structures, converge in the posterior parietal cortex in order to code the spatial locations of goals for movement ...

The Physician‐Scientist Pipeline for Pediatric Rheumatology – Current Landscape and Future Perspectives.

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Over the past 50 years, the science of pediatric rheumatology has grown exponentially due to an expansion in the understanding of complex rheumatic conditions and a surge in novel targeted therapeutics. Physician‐scientists in the field of pediatric rheumatology have played major roles in these advancements that have improved the care of children ...

Effects of visually simulated roll motion on vection and postural stabilization

open access: yesJournal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2007
Background Visual motion often provokes vection (the induced perception of self-motion) and postural movement. Postural movement is known to increase during vection, suggesting the same visual motion signal underlies vection and postural control. However,

A Unified Quantitative Model of Vision and Audition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We have put forwards a unified quantitative framework of vision and audition, based on existing data and theories. According to this model, the retina is a feedforward network self-adaptive to inputs in a specific period.

Digital Actuation Control of Soft Robotic Origami With Self‐Folding Liquid Crystal Elastomer Hinges

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐folding soft‐rigid hybrid robotic origami is enabled by liquid crystal elastomer actuators with embedded Joule heating and closed‐loop digital control. Digitally addressable hinges provide reversible and programmable transitions between distinct folded states while maintaining actuation performance at high cycle counts (over 1500).

Cognitive Rehabilitation in Bilateral Vestibular Patients: A Computational Perspective

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2018
There is evidence that vestibular sensory processing affects, and is affected by, higher cognitive processes. This is highly relevant from a clinical perspective, where there is evidence for cognitive impairments in patients with peripheral vestibular ...

Nanothermometry in Living Cells: Physical Limits, Conceptual and Material Challenges

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Heat and temperature are fundamental to life. When nanothermometers began probing regions as small as a living cell, they triggered controversial claims of large intracellular temperature gradients. We review physical constraints energy‐conservation, entropy production, thermodynamic fluctuations, and molecular dynamics.

A model of how depth facilitates scene-relative object motion perception.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2019
Many everyday interactions with moving objects benefit from an accurate perception of their movement. Self-motion, however, complicates object motion perception because it generates a global pattern of motion on the observer's retina and radically ...

Action-based effects on music perception [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The classical, disembodied approach to music cognition conceptualizes action and perception as separate, peripheral processes. In contrast, embodied accounts of music cognition emphasize the central role of the close coupling of action and perception. It
