Discomfort glare from daylight: Influence of transmitted color and the eye's macular pigment

Sneha Jain

Designing architectural façades that allow sufficient daylight to create visually comfortable and pleasant environments is a challenging aspect of building design. It requires accounting for visual comfort and discomfort glare risks and understanding the f ...

Prompt–RSVQA: Prompting visual context to a language model for Remote Sensing Visual Question Answering

Devis Tuia, Christel Marie Tartini-Chappuis, Valérie Zermatten

Remote sensing visual question answering (RQA) was recently proposed with the aim of interfacing natural language and vision to ease the access of information contained in Earth Observation data for a wide audience, which is granted by simple questions in ...

The irreducibility of vision: Gestalt, crowding and the fundamentals of vision

Michael Herzog

What is fundamental in vision has been discussed for millennia. For philosophical realists and the physiological approach to vision, the objects of the outer world are truly given, and failures to perceive objects properly, such as in illusions, are just s ...

The Gaze Dialogue Model: Nonverbal Communication in HHI and HRI

Aude Billard, José Santos-Victor, Nuno Ricardo Ferreira Duarte

When humans interact with each other, eye gaze movements have to support motor control as well as communication. On the one hand, we need to fixate the task goal to retrieve visual information required for safe and precise action-execution. On the other ha ...

Comparison between CIE 2° and 10° field photopic luminosity functions V(λ) for calculating daylight discomfort glare metrics

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Sneha Jain

The spectral sensitivity of the average human eye in photopic conditions is represented by the photopic luminosity function V (λ). The CIE has established the photopic luminosity functions for the 2o and 10o visual fields for a standard observer applicable ...

Advances in visual prostheses: engineering and biological challenges

Diego Ghezzi, Eleonora Borda

Vision is an extraordinary sense through which we can appreciate the beauty of the world we live in, gain invaluable knowledge and communicate with others using visual expression and arts. On the contrary, blindness is a threatening medical condition disru ...

Subjective assessment of visual comfort in a daylit workplace with an electrochromic glazed facade

Jan Wienold, Caroline Karmann, Sneha Jain

Electrochromic (EC) glazing is increasingly employed in building facades to achieve better visual comfort for the occupants. EC glazing can modulate the light entering through the facade by varying the solar transmittance of the glass and therefore can wor ...

Information integration and information storage in retinotopic and non-retinotopic sensory memory

Michael Herzog

The first stage of the Atkinson–Shiffrin model of human memory is a sensory memory (SM). The visual component of the SM was shown to operate within a retinotopic reference frame. However, a retinotopic SM (rSM) is unable to account for vision under natural ...

Spatial and temporal integration of visual features

Oh-Hyeon Choung

Visual processing can be seen as the integration and segmentation of features. Objects are composed of contours, integrated into shapes and segmented from other contours. Information also needs to be integrated to solve the ill-posed problems of vision. Fo ...

Photovoltaic stimulation of retinal microcircuit for vision restoration

Naïg Aurelia Ludmilla Chenais

Sight restoration through retinal prostheses was still a mere dream a century ago. Current challenges are even greater: providing a quantitatively and qualitatively useful artificial vision to late blind patients. Existing approaches all face engineering a ...

Crowding and the importance of grouping and segmentation processes in human vision

Alban Bornet

Human vision has evolved to make sense of a world in which elements almost never appear in isolation. Surprisingly, the recognition of an element in a visual scene is strongly limited by the presence of other nearby elements, a phenomenon known as visual c ...

TMS-induced control of bodily self-consciousness by combining non-invasive brain stimulation and immersive virtual reality

Matteo Franza

Our brain constantly receives and integrates a flow of sensory and motor information that shapes the way our body is represented. Several experimental approaches have been proposed to alter the body representation, by manipulating exteroceptive or interoce ...

Crowding and the Architecture of the Visual System

Adrien Christophe Doerig

Classically, vision is seen as a cascade of local, feedforward computations. This framework has been tremendously successful, inspiring a wide range of ground-breaking findings in neuroscience and computer vision. Recently, feedforward Convolutional Neural ...

Novel PDE6B Mutation Presenting with Retinitis Pigmentosa - A Case Series of Three Patients

Daniel Francis Schorderet

Background Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) affects 2.5 million people worldwide. Increased identification of causative gene defects and the increasing possibility of treatment necessitates better knowledge of phenotype-genotype correlations to help identify pati ...

Shrinking Bouma's window: Visual crowding in dense displays

Michael Herzog, Gregory Francis, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Alban Bornet

In crowding, perception of a target deteriorates in the presence of nearby flankers. In the traditional feedforward framework of vision, only elements within Bouma’s window interfere with the target and adding more elements always leads to stronger crowdin ...

Exploring the Extent in the Visual Field of the Honeycomb and Extinction Illusions

Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud

There are situations in which what is perceived in central vision is different to what is perceived in the periphery, even though the stimulus display is uniform. Here, we studied two cases, known as the Extinction illusion and the Honeycomb illusion, invo ...

Conservative management of retinoblastoma: Challenging orthodoxy without compromising the state of metastatic grace. "Alive, with good vision and no comorbidity"

Paul Joseph Dyson

Retinoblastoma is lethal by metastasis if left untreated, so the primary goal of therapy is to preserve life, with ocular survival, visual preservation and quality of life as secondary aims. Historically, enucleation was the first successful therapeutic ap ...

Running Large-Scale Simulations on the Neurorobotics Platform to Understand Vision - The Case of Visual Crowding

Michael Herzog, Gregory Francis, Alban Bornet

Traditionally, human vision research has focused on specific paradigms and proposed models to explain very specific properties of visual perception. However, the complexity and scope of modern psychophysical paradigms undermine the success of this approach ...
