Abstract:
AbstractA series of experiments investigated perceived direction of motion and depth segregation in motion transparency displays consisting of two planes of dots moving in different directions. Direction and depth judgments were obtained from human observers viewing these "bi-directional" animation sequences with and without explicit stereoscopic depth information. We found that (1) misperception of motion direction ("direction repulsion") occurs when two spatially intermingled directions of motion are within 60 deg of each other; (2) direction repulsion is minimal at cardinal directions; (3) perception of two directions of motion always results in separate motion planes segregated in depth; and (4) stereoscopic depth information has no effect on the magnitude of direction repulsion, but it does disambiguate the depth relations between motion directions. These results are developed within the context of a two-stage model of motion transparency. On this model, motion directions are registered within units subject to inhibitory interactions that cause direction repulsion, with the outputs of these units pooled within units selective for direction and disparity.

Abstract:
The landslide triggered by earthquakes can cause severe infrastructure losses or even fatalities. The high-steep rock slide is the most common type of landslide in the earthquake area. In an earthquake, the ground moves randomly in all directions, two horizontal directions (East-West (EW) direction, North-South (NS) direction) and one vertical direction (Up-Down (UD) direction). Even though extensive studies have been carried out on the earthquake-triggered landslide, the effects of each single seismic wave and the three-directional seismic waves are not considered. This study aims to evaluate the effects of different types of the seismic waves on the dynamic response and failure behavior of the high-steep rock slide. To investigate the effects of each single seismic wave and three-directional seismic wave, this study presents a numerical model with four types of seismic waves, e.g., East-West (EW) direction, North-South (NS) direction, Up-Down (UD) direction, and three-directional wave (EW_NS_UD). The numerical results revealed that the types of the seismic waves have significantly different effects on the dynamic process, failure behavior, run-out distance, velocity, and deposition of the high-steep rock slide.

Abstract:
Many perceptual tasks require estimating a direction in space. Often several directional cues are available, such visual and gravitational cues to the subjective vertical, or visual and auditory cues to the direction of an object. In work on the subjective vertical, researchers have developed a heuristic vector summation model that has no deep theoretical motivation, but that accounts well for the direction and reliability of observers’ direction estimates when multiple cues are available, and that can accommodate directional cues ranging over all possible directions (Mittelstaedt, 1983). In work on combining visual and auditory cues to direction, researchers have used statistically motivated cue combination models that were originally developed for linear quantities such as depth, not circular or spherical quantities such as direction, and hence work only over a limited range of cue directions (Alais and Burr, 2004). Here we present a new model of directional cue combination that combines the advantages of both previous approaches. We develop a statistical theory of cue combination based on the von Mises distribution, the analog on the circle of the normal distribution on the line. We show that this theory differs in important ways from the theory of linear cue combination, e.g., a combined direction estimate can be less certain than any of the individual cues that were used to calculate it. We also show that the vector summation model developed empirically by previous investigators is an excellent approximation to our theory, meaning that it is a nearly optimal way of combining directional cues.

Abstract:
People perceive better in cardinal directions compared with oblique ones. This directional effect, called oblique effect, has been documented in perception studies for a long time. However, typical motor studies do not differentiate learning in different directions. In this study we identify a significant directional effect in motor learning using visuomotor rotation paradigms. We find that adaptation to visual perturbations yields more savings when both initial learning and relearning are performed in cardinal directions than in oblique directions. We hypothesize that this directional effect arises from relatively higher error saliency in cardinal directions. Consistent with this hypothesis, we successfully increased savings in the oblique directions, which showed no saving effect before, by enhancing the error saliency with augmented visual feedback during learning. Our findings suggest that movement direction plays an important role in motor learning, especially when learning signals are direction specific. Our results also provide new insights about the role of motor errors in the formation and retrieval of motor memory and practical implications for promoting learning in motor rehabilitation and athletic training. NEW & NOTEWORTHY People perceive better when the stimulus is in cardinal directions than in oblique directions. Whether a similar directional effect exists in motor learning is unknown. Using a motor learning paradigm, we show that people relearn to compensate for a previously encountered perturbation faster when they move in cardinal directions than when they move in oblique directions. Further experimentation supports that this motor directional effect likely results from better sensory saliency of motor errors in cardinal directions.

Abstract:
Literature and first-hand accounts assert that home education and schooling are fundamentally different forms of education and that homeschooling has long been associated with positive educational outcomes. In 2012, the Western Australian School Curriculum and Standards Authority directed all Western Australian schools and home educators to begin implementing the Australian Curriculum (a Foundation to Year 10 syllabus specifying yearly-delineated content). Home educators received no explanation as to how they could apply such a detailed, fixed syllabus to their un-school-like settings and the only assistance offered came in the form of a reference to the official Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority website. The aim of this research is to determine how homeschooling parents perceive this directive, how (or if) they intend to satisfy its obligations and whether evidence suggests that superior educational outcomes are likely to result. It is argued that parents’ perceptions of homeschool requirements are of critical importance as accurate evaluation of home education is extremely difficult particularly if parents choose to eschew registration. A qualitative paradigm with an interpretive phenomenological emphasis was utilized to understand parents’ responses, actions and decisions. To this end, semi-structured, in-depth interviews were conducted in March 2013 with thirteen home educators. Participants were recruited from Perth and south-west Western Australia using purposive and snowball sampling. The findings of this study indicate there is a wide disparity in parents’ willingness to adopt the Australian Curriculum into their homeschool settings. Some parents indicate an inclination to adjust the way they report educational experiences rather than to modify their actual practices. This study concludes that imposing a regulatory framework intended for mainstream schools onto home educating families actually restricts the use of flexible practices which have significantly contributed to the positive educational outcomes of homeschooled children in the past.

Abstract:
There are a lot of stand-alone and mobile platforms using transmitters today. Some want to be found while others do not. In our modern society there is a great demand of mobility and communication abilities. This means that several mobile platforms could potentially carry a sensor to record incoming signals to be used in Direction Finding. This thesis identifies the possibility to determine the direction to a transmitter with randomly placed sensors. By conducting a literature review well-known methods such as Time Difference Of Arrival (TDOA) and MUltiple SIgnal Classification (MUSIC) where chosen as methods in this analysis. The methods are applied on two antenna arrays, an Uniform Circular Array (UCA) and a Random Circular Array (RCA). The RCA is generated with randomly placed sensors. The performance in the Direction Of Arrival (DOA) is investigated in presence of time synchronization error and with different numbers of elements, radius and Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR). The ambiguity in the arrays is also investigated to insure a ambiguity-free DOA estimation. The results from this analysis identifies that the accuracy in the DOA estimation is dependent on the number of elements, SNR, the elements positions and the radius of the DF array. Furthermore, the accuracy of a UCA is greater than a RCA when the elements are randomly distributed within the area of a circle with radius R. Finally, it has shown that if time synchronization error occurs between the sensors, then the MUSIC method the accuracy will decrease greatly.
Det finns många individer och mobila platformar som använder sändare idag. Vissa vill bli hittade, andra inte. I vårat moderna samhälle är det en stor efterfrågan på rörlighet och kommunikationsmöjligheter. Detta innebär att många mobila plattformar skulle kunna spela in signaler för att användas i radiopejling. Denna uppsats identifierar möjligheten att bestämma riktningen till en sändare med slumpmässigt placerade sensorer. Genom litteraturstudien identifierades de välkända riktningsmetoder som Time Difference Of Arrivial (TDOA) och MUltiple SIgnal Classification (MUSIC) som vidare valdes som metoder i denna analys. Två antennstrukturer används i analyserna. Den ena är en Uniform Circular Array (UCA) och den andra är en Random Circular Array (RCA). RCA är genererad med slumpmässigt utplacerade sensorer. Prestandan i riktningsuppskattningen undersöks när det existerar ett tidssynkroniseringsfel, olika antal sensorer i antennstrukturerna, varierande radier och olika signaloch brusförhållanden.Ä ventvetydigheter undersöks i strukturerna för att säkerställa att en entydig riktningsbestämning kan utföras. Resultaten implicerar att noggrannheten i riktningsbestämningen är beroende avantalet element, SNR, elementens position och radien i antennmatrisen. Utöver detta visar resultaten att en UCA har högre noggrannhet än en RCA då elementen är slumpmässigt utplacerade inom en cirkelradie, R. Slutligen, om tidssynkroniseringsfel uppstår mellan sensorerna kommer detta resultera i minskad noggrannhet när MUSIC metoden tillämpas.

Online mapping services and portable GPS units make it easy to get very detailed driving directions. While these directions are sufficient for an automaton to follow, they do not present a big picture description of the route. As a result, while people can follow these detailed turn-by-turn directions, it can be difficult for them to actually comprehend where they are going. Our goal is to make such directions more comprehensible. Our approach is to apply findings from human spatial cognition, the study of how people conceptualize and organize their knowledge of large-scale space, to create a system that generates written route overviews. Route overviews provide a big picture description of a route, and are intended to supplement the information in turn-by-turn directions. Our route overviews are based on cognitively-inspired design criteria such as: the use of spatial hierarchy, goal-directed descriptions, selective suppression of detail, and the use of the trunk segments and cognitive anchor points along the route. In our experiments, we show that we can make directions more comprehensible independent of the particular places a person knows - by using what we know about how people think about space to structure the way we present spatial information.

Full text
Abstract:
The General Direction Routing Protocol (GDRP) is a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) multi-path routing protocol which abstracts localization information (commonly GPS coordinates) into relative direction information in order to perform routing decisions. By generating relative direction information GDRP is able to operate with fewer precision requirements than other protocols. This abstraction also allows the integration of other emerging hardware-based localization techniques, for example, Beamforming Sensor Arrays. GDRP does not specifically address the next hop a packet should take, but instead specifies a direction it should travel. This direction abstraction allows for multiple paths to be taken through the network thus enhancing network robustness to node mobility and failures. This indirect addressing scheme also provides a solution to sensor node unique identification. GDRP is simulated in a custom simulator written in Java. This simulator supports interfaces for multiple protocols for layers 1, 2, 3, and 7 of the OSI model. For performance comparisons, GDRP is compared against multiple WSN routing protocols. GDRP operates with a significantly lower setup cost in terms of bytes transmitted and a lower setup latency for networks of varying sizes. It also demonstrates an exponentially lower routing cost when compared to another multi- path routing protocol due to a more efficient packet propagation in the network.

Abstract:
This Master thesis tackles the problem of measuring objects’ directions from a motionlessobservation point. A new method based on a single rotating camera requiring the knowledge ofonly two (or more) landmarks’ direction is proposed. In a first phase, multi-view geometry isused to estimate camera rotations and key elements’ direction from a set of overlapping images.Then in a second phase, the direction of any object can be estimated by resectioning the cameraassociated to a picture showing this object. A detailed description of the algorithmic chain isgiven, along with test results on both synthetic data and real images taken with an infraredcamera.
Detta masterarbete behandlar problemet med att mäta objekts riktningar från en fastobservationspunkt. En ny metod föreslås, baserad på en enda roterande kamera som kräverendast två (eller flera) landmärkens riktningar. I en första fas används multiperspektivgeometri,för att uppskatta kamerarotationer och nyckelelements riktningar utifrån en uppsättningöverlappande bilder. I en andra fas kan sedan riktningen hos vilket objekt som helst uppskattasgenom att kameran, associerad till en bild visande detta objekt, omsektioneras. En detaljeradbeskrivning av den algoritmiska kedjan ges, tillsammans med testresultat av både syntetisk dataoch verkliga bilder tagen med en infraröd kamera.

Full text
Abstract:
According to standard geometrical optics, monocular visual direction for a defocused image is determined by the chief ray, which locates the center of the resulting blur circle. Recent studies of chromostereopsis have indicated that photoreceptor optics, i.e., the Stiles–Crawford effect (SCE), also affects apparent visual direction of defocused images.1,2 Because photoreceptor directional sensitivity peaks near the normal pupil center, marginal rays are less effective stimuli. If the pupil is displaced with respect to the SCE peak, the effective image may be shifted with respect to the chief ray by the SCE. Using wave optical analysis of a simple water eye model with an apodized pupil to account for the SCE, we calculated that visual direction of defocused images is significantly shifted when the model views through a displaced aperture. We have experimentally measured the effect of the SCE on apparent visual directions by comparing perceived visual directions of defocused images when subjects view through a displaced aperture under photopic and scotopic conditions. As our model predicted, the visual direction under scotopic conditions (no SCE) was determined by the chief ray, but visual direction at photopic levels was significantly different by an amount predicted by the midpoint of zero-crossings in the defocused retinal image in the apodized model eye.

Full text
Abstract:
The direction cosine space representation of angles relates more directly to fundamental physics than the more common θ and ϕ specifications. Consequently, geometrical optics, radiometry, diffraction, and interference can be better unified. Directions and ranges of directions can be displayed with a simple diagram. If (α, β, γ) are the direction cosines, points in an (α, β) coordinate system represent directions and areas show ranges of direction. Many basic results can be obtained trivially with this diagram. For example, it is easily seen that brightness is conserved by refraction at plane surfaces and single-order diffraction by gratings. In addition, many quantities are actually in direction cosine space without this being realized. For example, the pupil function is properly represented in this space, as are computations involving it, for example, the evaluation of the OTF. The fundamental radiometric quantity ∫dΩ cosθ is an area in the cosine space diagram, as is π sin2θ, a radiometric quantity associated with imaging systems. The direction-cosine space diagram also facilitates understanding of multidimensional phase space, which can be represented by a diagram of diagrams involving both position and direction.

Abstract:
A typical approach to determining wave direction is to assume that the sea surface is made up of several sinusoidal waves of various frequencies and directions. One method to determine wave direction as a function of frequency is to use an array of time-series point measurements of water elevation. These multi-element arrays can either be linear or polygonal, and utilize phase, time and path differences to determine wave direction. Typically, pressure gages or capacitance wave probes are used in a directional wave array, however, recently at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division, a directional wave array was employed using five ultrasonic level sensors in an array to quantify wave direction in the Maneuvering and Seakeeping basin (MASK). Two methods were then used to calculate wave direction, a phase/path/time difference method of Esteva which yields a mean direction for each frequency bin, and the Maximum Likelihood Method (MLM), which yields a directional spectrum for each frequency bin. Testing in the MASK was performed to assess the feasibility of using the array on a moving vessel to measure directional seas in the field. The sensors' sampling rate was set at 20 Hz and the five sensors were set up in "slave-master" mode, with the “master” driving the four “slaves” to sample concurrently. This method helped to reduce cross-talk between the sensors and their subsequent dropouts and spikes. Data was collected using LabView software with custom written real-time analysis in MATLAB. Wave direction was measured with regular and irregular waves, with unidirectional and bi-directional systems ninety degrees apart. Tests were performed with the array in a stationary position, as well as with forward motion and simulated pitch and roll motions to assess the potential of using the array on a moving vessel. Results with the stationary array from the basin are good, with the array correctly measuring regular waves of a single frequency from two directions, as well as irregular waves from two directions. Results from the system undergoing motions have increased variability.
