Active Vision notes

This lecture summary was based on how we guide our own self-movement- what cues does one use to get to a target? The lecture explores two hypotheses: optic flow and egocentric direction. The lecture explores the role of extra retinal signals, models of heading, and fascinating phenomenons such as unilateral neglect, with the case study of WV. I have also included interesting information from papers on neglect and locomotion in terms of the gender differences and also in patients with parkinson...

This module examines the differences between the 'classic' passive view of vision and a newer approach - Active Vision. It looks at the differences between the two, as well as examining cortical and subcortical structures involved and streams of processing. The notes are very detailed, consisting of information from the seminars and elsewhere. This lecture contains information on: - Passive vision - Methods of studying vision - Psychophysics - Physiology - Computer science - Reasons for dominanc...
