Minimal theory of 3D vision: new approach to visual scale and visual shape

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Biological Sciences, 2022
Since Kepler and Descartes in the early-1600s, vision science has been committed to a triangulation model of stereo vision. But in the early-1800s, we realized that disparities are responsible for stereo vision.

Binocular mirror–symmetric microsaccadic sampling enables Drosophila hyperacute 3D vision

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2022
Significance To move efficiently, animals must continuously work out their x,y,z positions with respect to real-world objects, and many animals have a pair of eyes to achieve this.

Boosting Deep Open World Recognition by Clustering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
While convolutional neural networks have brought significant advances in robot vision, their ability is often limited to closed world scenarios, where the number of semantic concepts to be recognized is determined by the available training set.

High diversity of arthropod colour vision: from genes to ecology

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Biological Sciences, 2022
Colour vision allows animals to use the information contained in the spectrum of light to control important behavioural decisions such as selection of habitats, food or mates.

Effects of Implementing the Timed and Targeted Counselling Model on Pregnancy Outcomes and Newborn Survival in Rural Uganda: Protocol for a Quasi-Experimental Study

open access: yesMethods and Protocols, 2020
Background: Although mortality rates have declined in Uganda over the last decade, maternal mortality is still high at 336 deaths per 100,000 live births, as is infant mortality at 43 deaths per 1000 live births.

New Approaches to 3D Vision

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Biological Sciences, 2022
New approaches to 3D vision are enabling new advances in artificial intelligence and autonomous vehicles, a better understanding of how animals navigate the 3D world, and new insights into human perception in virtual and augmented reality.

Differential coding of perception in the world’s languages

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018
Is there a universal hierarchy of the senses, such that some senses (e.g., vision) are more accessible to consciousness and linguistic description than others (e.g., smell)?

Development and Validation of a Data-Based Food Frequency Questionnaire for Adults in Eastern Rural Area of Rwanda

open access: yesNutrition and Metabolic Insights, 2016
This study aimed to develop and evaluate the validity of a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) for rural Rwandans. Since our FFQ was developed to assess malnutrition, it measured energy, protein, vitamin A, and iron intakes only.
