A new account of how we perceive the 3D shapes of objects and how to design machines that can see shapes the way we do.

Although William James declared in 1890, "Everyone knows what attention is," today there are many different and sometimes opposing views on the subject. This fragmented theoretical landscape may be because most of the theories and models of attention offer explanations in natural language or in a pictorial manner rather than providing a quantitative and unambiguous statement of the theory. They…
An account of Western visual technologies since the Renaissance traces a history of the increasing control of light's intrinsic excess.OCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record.
Based on a workshop held at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory's Banbury Center in June 1989."A Bradford book."The more than twenty contributions in this book, all new and previously unpublished, provide an up-to-date survey of contemporary research on computational modeling of the visual system. The approaches represented range from neurophysiology to psychophysics, and from retinal function to…
"A Bradford book."Many people believe that merely by opening their eyes, they see everything in their field of view; in fact, a line of psychological research has been taken as evidence of the existence of so-called preattentional perception. In Inattentional Blindness, Arien Mack and Irvin Rock make the claim that there is no such thing - that there is no conscious perception of the visual wor…
"A Bradford book."This text provides an introduction to computational aspects of early vision, in particular, color, stereo, and visual navigation. It integrates approaches from psychophysics and quantitative neurobiology, as well as theories and algorithms from machine vision and photogrammetry. When presenting mathematical material, it uses detailed verbal descriptions and illustrations to cl…
"Cain chronicles twentieth-century schools' experiments with screen media and investigates the contests over citizenship and civic education that emerged in reaction"--OCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record.
"A Bradford book."The cognitive neuroscience of human vision draws on two kinds of evidence: functional imaging of normal subjects and the study of neurological patients with visual disorders. Martha Farah's landmark 1990 book Visual Agnosia presented the first comprehensive analysis of disorders of visual recognition within the framework of cognitive neuroscience, and remains the authoritative…
"A Bradford book."Creative Cognition combines original experiments with existing work in cognitive psychology to provide the first explicit account of the cognitive processes and structures that contribute to creative thinking and discovery.Creative Cognition combines original experiments with existing work in cognitive psychology to provide the first explicit account of the cognitive processes…
