Computer graphic control over human face and head appearance: to, genetic optimisation of perceptual characteristics
(University of St Andrews, 1998) - ThesisThe aims of this thesis are two-fold. The first is to develop computer graphics that allow quantitative manipulation of complex visual stimuli. The second is to show that such techniques have utility in the domain of ... -
Visual processing of pictorial and facial images in human and monkey
(University of St Andrews, 1992) - ThesisOver the last two decades, the study of 'repetition effects' in behavioural and Event Related Potential (E.R.P) research has originated and added to theories of memory organisation. In this series of experiments, behavioural ... -
The perception of motion
(University of St Andrews, 1996) - ThesisExtracting a motion signal for a two-dimensional contour requires the human visual system to derive a velocity vector from the spatially limited receptive fields of motion sensitive cortical cells. An individual cell's ... -
A study of visuomotor behaviour in normal and brain lesioned human subjects, with special reference to line bisection performance in patients with hemispatial neglect
(University of St Andrews, 1994) - ThesisIn Experiments 1 to 8 an attempt was made to examine the nature of the displacements found in the traditional line bisection test when applied to normal (right-handed), as well as brain lesioned subjects. The problem with ... -
Visual processing in a primate temporal association cortex: insensitivity to self-induced motion
(University of St Andrews, 1993) - ThesisAn animal's own behaviour can give rise to sensory stimulation that is very similar to stimulation of completely external origin. Much of this self-induced stimulation has little informative value to the animal and may ...
