Tags: Introductory Neuroscience : Lecture summaries Cells in the parvocellular division of the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) have small, colour selective receptive fields, whereas cells in the magnocellular division have large, movement selective receptive fields. These parallel pathways are specialised to transmit different aspects […]

Tags: Dyslexia - Biological AspectsMagnocellular Theory
Although current research is exploring numerous possible causes, the magnocellular theory, in particular, has recently gained much attention. This theory suggests that a deficit in the magnocellular pathway (MC) may be responsible for the visual, learning, and processing problems found in dyslexia. Because the MC pathway, along with the parvocellular pathway, […]

Tags: U of T PSY280F PERCEPTION: LGN: Magno/Parvo Magnocellular and Parvocellular layers in the LGN Layers 1 and 2 (labelled ‘M’) contain magnocellular cells. Layers 3 - 6 (labelled ‘P’) contain parvocellular cells. The magno cells are part of the m-pathway — primarily responsible for processing information about motion and flicker. The parvo cells are part of […]

The parameters of eye movement
Eye movements can be described by using a number of parameters. These are relatively easy to calculate or measure from eye position data collected using one of the methods described elsewhere. This parameter approach can be applied to any eye movement, but only two […]

Tags: PForth FAQ
Can pForth make turnkey applications under Windows and Unix?
Normally pforth reads its dictionary from a file which is flexible but inconvenient for a turnkey app. But you can convert the dictionary to a static array and compile it with pForth. Then one only needs the executable image to run pForth. This is done routinely when […]

FORTH-Like Scripting Language for Allegro
As you may know, many computer games use internal scripting languages to describe their storylines, behavior of actors/items, etc. As a rule, these languages are based on an interpreted virtual machine — the most clear, reliable and easy-to-implement idea.
Direct programming of such a machine is tedious, that’s why some […]
