Perceiving tropes [PDF]

, 2012
There are two very different ways of thinking about perception. According to the first one, perception is representational: it represents the world as being a certain way.

Predicting future reading problems based on pre-reading auditory measures: a longitudinal study of children with a familial risk of dyslexia [PDF]

, 2017
Purpose: This longitudinal study examines measures of temporal auditory processing in pre-reading children with a family risk of dyslexia. Specifically, it attempts to ascertain whether pre-reading auditory processing, speech perception, and ...

Sensory adaptation for timing perception [PDF]

Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2015
Recent sensory experience modifies subjective timing perception. For example, when visual events repeatedly lead auditory events, such as when the sound and video tracks of a movie are out of sync, subsequent vision-leads-audio presentations are reported as more simultaneous.

The burden of burnout: Understanding its prevalence and organizational drivers in medical physics

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Burnout is a work‐related syndrome characterized by increased levels of emotional exhaustion (EE) and depersonalization (DP) along with decreased levels of personal achievement. In the healthcare setting, higher burnout levels have been associated with negative impacts on personnel, an increased risk of errors, and a decrease in the

Towards better understanding of factors contributing to medical physicist well‐being in academic medical centers: A systems‐analysis approach

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract The well‐being of medical physicists can impact overall system performance, patient safety, and quality of patient care. There are limited formal assessments of factors contributing to physicists well‐being. Nine medical physicists at a US academic medical center were surveyed on 21 workplace factors, drawn from the National Academy of ...

The Story of Intrusion: Time, Life/Death, Affirmation, and Representation in Ted Chiang’s “Story of Your Life” and Jean-Luc Nancy’s L’Intrus [PDF]

Fafnir, 2022
Bringing Ted Chiang’s SF novella “Story of Your Life” (1998) into conversation with Jean-Luc Nancy’s autobiographical philosophical text L’Intrus (2002) sheds new light on both of these texts’ central concerns.

Serial dependence in timing perception [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2017
Recent sensory history affects subsequent experience. Behavioural results have demonstrated this effect in two forms: repeated exposure to the same sensory input produces negative after-effects wherein sensory stimuli like that previously experienced are judged as less like the exposed stimulation, while singular exposures can produce positive after ...

UR‐cycleGAN: Denoising full‐body low‐dose PET images using cycle‐consistent Generative Adversarial Networks

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aims to develop a CycleGAN based denoising model to enhance the quality of low‐dose PET (LDPET) images, making them as close as possible to standard‐dose PET (SDPET) images. Methods Using a Philips Vereos PET/CT system, whole‐body PET images of fluorine‐18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18F‐FDG) were acquired from 37 patients to ...
