Influence of 3D Centro-Symmetry on a 2D Retinal Image
Symmetry. 2020. Vol. 12. No. 11: 1863. P. 1–12.
Sawada T.
An object is 3D centro-symmetrical if the object can be segmented into two halves and the relationship between them can be represented by a combination of reflection about a plane and a rotation through 180° about an axis that is normal to the plane. A 2D orthographic image of the 3D centro-symmetrical object is always 2D rotation-symmetrical. Note that the human visual system is known to be sensitive to 2D rotational symmetry. This human sensitivity to 2D rotational symmetry might also be used to detect 3D centro-symmetry. If it is, can this detection of 3D centro-symmetry be helpful for the perception of 3D? In this study, the geometrical properties of 3D centro-symmetry and its 2D orthographic and perspective projections were examined to find out whether 3D centro-symmetry plays any role in the perception of 3D. I found that, from a theoretical point-of-view, it is unlikely that 3D centro-symmetry can be used by the human visual system to organize a 2D image of an object in a way that makes it possible to recover the 3D shape of an object from its 2D image.

В русскоязычной психологической литературе конструкт «агентность» встречается редко и обычно отождествляется с понятием «субъектность». В англоязычном дискурсе при рассмотрении агентности изучают два аспекта: ее ощущение и оценку. Дифференциальный опросник переживания агентности (Sense of Agency Scale) А. Тапал и коллег – ДОПА – направлен на измерение общего ощущаемого контроля над собственными произвольными действиями. Целью текущего исследования ...

Large language models (LLMs) have been proposed as a substitute for field trials in itemdifficulty estimation, but evidence about where they succeed is usually drawn from a single test form. We compare LLM difficulty predictions across three task types that make different language demands, grammar cloze, semantic cloze and reading comprehension, on two operational Grade ...

В условиях роста стоимости энергоресурсов и необходимости повышения энергоэффективности производственных процессов особую актуальность приобретает задача оптимизации энергопотребления промышленных предприятий. В данной работе рассматривается подход к управлению энергозатратами машиностроительного предприятия на основе методов многокритериальной оптимизации. Постановка задачи включает несколько целевых функций: минимизацию энергопотребления, минимизацию стоимости электроэнергии с учётом тарифных ограничений и максимизацию производственной эффективности. Для решения ...

Being able to remember the origin of a particular memory is for times even more important than the memory itself. Yet, although memory for the information and memory for the source are intrinsically connected, the particular neural underpinnings for the source‐memory monitoring remains unclear.

The increasing prevalence of technology in daily life has led to a rising demand for IT specialists. In response, educational curricula have been adapted to incorporate coding lessons as early as primary school.

The rapid proliferation of misinformation in digital environments poses a serious threat to public health, political institutions, and public discourse. Behavioral research has accumulated substantial evidence on why people believe and share false information, yet individual studies address cognitive biases, social factors, or emotional processes largely in isolation. Additionally, the influential integrative frameworks that do ...

Информационные системы формируют большие объёмы событийных журналов, которые используются для анализа работы приложений и сервисов. При этом события могут поступать в аналитический контур позже момента их фактического возникновения и не в исходном порядке. Такая рассинхронизация приводит к ошибкам при построении агрегированных временных показателей, а регулярный полный пересчёт многомерного аналитического куба требует значительных вычислительных затрат.

Polarization of opinions in the group: a modeling algorithm considering the dynamics of social bonds

The dynamics of opinion in a group are of interest for a number of practical purposes. In particular, consensus helps and polarization of opinions hinders cohesive teamwork. Existing approaches for modeling opinion dynamics mostly do not take into account the dynamism of social relations in a group. This paper proposes an algorithm and a program ...

Decision trees and their ensemble extensions, such as random forests, are widely used as classification models due to their simplicity and interpretability. However, in many real-world tasks where class labels overlap in the feature space, standard decision trees rely on hard splits that create fragile decision boundaries. In these regions, small perturbations in the input ...

Bayesian nonparametric density estimation procedures are typically based on single-scale priors, such as Dirichlet process mixtures. Alternative multiscale density priors built on decision trees have many well-known advantages, including the ability to characterize abrupt local changes and to provide an estimate with a desired level of resolution. Despite their theoretical appeal, multiscale methods have typically ...

Context. The preschool period is a critical stage for the development of prosocial behavior. Children begin to understand the feelings of others, and the foundations of empathy and mutual assistance are formed. Situation-specific expressions of care can develop into more stable forms when children are embedded in a system of social relationships. However, the specific characteristics ...

We investigate a special ansats that allows for an iterative solution of the constant Yang-Baxter equation. Testing this ansatz, we construct four sequences of the constant R-matrices. In each sequence the R-matrices act on the tensor squares of vector spaces of linearly growing dimensions. Each R-matrix also depends on a single complex parameter.

We study complete static manifolds with boundary admitting a nowhere-vanishing static potential. Our main result shows that, under a natural lower bound relating the scalar curvature and the boundary mean curvature, a simple static manifold with boundary must in fact have positive scalar curvature, negative boundary mean curvature, and be compact; we also obtain explicit ...
