The association of color memory and the enumeration of multiple spatially overlapping sets
(Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO), 2013)Using dot displays, Halberda, Sires, and Feigenson (2006) showed that observers could simultaneously encode the numerosity of two spatially overlapping sets and the superset of all items at a glance. With the brief display ... -
Nectar, Not Colour, May Lure Insects to Their Death
(Royal Publishing Society, 2009)We experimentally demonstrate in the field that prey of the carnivorous plant <i>Sarracenia purpurea</i> are attracted to sugar, not to color. Prey capture (either all taxa summed or individual common taxa considered ... -
Phylogeography, color variation, and hybridization in an Andean tanager, Superciliaried Hemispingus (Aves: Thlypopsis superciliaris)
(2022-03-17)Natural history collections are invaluable libraries of Earth’s biodiversity. Museum specimens frequently span temporal, geographic, and taxonomic scales and afford unparalleled insights into environmental, organismal, and ... -
Properties of the Visible Light Phototaxis and UV Avoidance Behaviors in the Larval Zebrafish
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2016)For many organisms, color is an essential source of information from visual scenes. The larval zebrafish has the potential to be a model for the study of this topic, given its tetrachromatic retina and high dependence on ... -
Signaling, Cooperation, and Conflict in Animals
(2021-05-10)Animals spend their lives sending and receiving signals. Before birth, embryos converse with mothers through hormones and receptors; in adulthood, many animals attract and assess partners through colorful mating dances. ... -
Vertical Silicon Nanowires for Image Sensor Applications
(2014-10-21)Conventional image sensors achieve color imaging using absorptive organic dye filters. These face considerable challenges however in the trend toward ever higher pixel densities and advanced imaging methods such as ... -
Which One? Grounding the Referent Based on Efficient Human-Robot Interaction
(IEEE, 2010)In human-robot interaction, a robot must be prepared to handle possible ambiguities generated by a human partner. In this work we propose a set of strategies that allow a robot to identify the referent when the human partner ...
