Tensorial basis to the constancy of perceived object extent over variations of dynamic touch
TL;DR: Conceived extent was found to be constant in both comparisons and constancy was tied to the inertia tensorIij, an invariant of the spatially and temporally dependent patterning of mechanical energy impressed upon the tissues of the body.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Neural Basis of Optimism and Pessimism
TL;DR: It is suggested that optimism and pessimism are differentially associated with the two cerebral hemispheres, and hemispheric asymmetry in mediating optimistic and pessimistic outlooks is rooted in several biological and functional differences between the two hemisphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lateral interception I: operative optical variables, attunement and calibration
TL;DR: The present study sought attunement changes in the perception of real events and in visually guided action in adults judged the passing distance of or attempted to catch balls and found calibration was found to underlie the improvements in performance.

Learning Lie Groups for Invariant Visual Perception
Rajesh P. N. Rao,Daniel Ruderman +1 more
TL;DR: A Bayesian method for learning invariances based on Lie group theory and experimental results suggest that the proposed method can learn Lie group operators for handling reasonably large 1-D translations and 2-D rotations.

The ergonomics of learning: educational design and learning performance.
TL;DR: This paper deals with the fundamental purpose of education – student learning – and with the question of how the ergonomic design of the learning environment influences learning performance, addressing the origins and scope of learning ergonomics.
