“…Whitehead’s response to the epistemological challenges of Hume and Kant, written in a style devoid of the metaphysical intricacies of his later works, Symbolism makes accessible his theory of perception and his more general insights into the function of symbols in culture and society…”

“…Over the past 40 years, neurobiology and computational neuroscience has proved that deeper understanding of visual processes in humans and non-human primates can lead to important advancements in computational perception theories and systems. One of the main difficulties that arises when designing automatic vision systems is developing a mechanism that can recognize - or simply find - an object when faced with all the possible variations that may occur in a natural scene, with the ease of the primate visual system. …”

“…Immanuel Kant’s ‘Transcendental Deduction of the Categories’ addresses issues centrally debated today in philosophy and in cognitive sciences, especially in epistemology, and in theory of perception. Kant’s insights into these issues are clouded by pervasive misunderstandings of Kant’s ‘Deduction’ and its actual aims, scope, and argument. …”

“…From Pavlov's dog expecting food when hearing a bell to stereotypes as expectations about other people’s behaviour, from Bandura’s self-efficacy as expectation for success and failure of one’s own behaviour to the "predictive brain" concept in current perception theories: expectations have been a central construct in different areas of psychological research. …”

“…These are some of the questions on which the perception of the participants has been solicited, with a particular focus on the students' voice, received by other older students…”

“…Accelerating MATLAB Performance aims to correct this perception by describing multiple ways to greatly improve MATLAB program speed. …”

“…Three channels of influence are explored in this paper: shrinking insurance coverage stemming from the perception of greater risk, higher trade costs possibly affecting international trade, and stepped-up security spending partially rolling back the “peace dividend” of the 1990s. …”

“…The messengers that mediate closure upon perception of elicitors or microbe associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) are quite similar to those during ABA effects. …”

“…These two attitudes are symmetrically detrimental, not only to the proper perception of this information but also to its use. …”

“…This book addresses the QoE for improving customer perception when using added value services offered by service providers, from evaluation to monitoring and other management processes…”

“…Like movies, television, and other preceding forms of media, video games are undergoing a dynamic shift in its content and perception. While the medium can still be considered in its infancy, the mark of true artistry and conceptual depth is detectable in the evolving styles, various genres and game themes. …”

“…Expressive understanding integrates aspects of computer science, philosophy, psychology, and the fine, applied, and performing arts, investigating theoretical approaches that further our understanding of aesthetic evaluation, perception and meaning. Expressive communication focuses on imagery and motion which is expressive rather than photorealistic, although it may incorporate realistic elements. …”

“…A key aspect of the design challenge is to demonstrate the science and effectiveness of the approaches that are making physical sensing and actuation, perception, situational assessment, decision making, and execution possible at runtime. …”

“…In particular, we demonstrate that the phrase yumāne nesalñe is to be understood as a calque of Skt. anu-bhava ‘experience, perception’, confirming an observation about the meaning of the root yu- made by Peyrot in 2013. …”

“…Frank Jacob explains what role apes played for the self-perception of humans and how they were and are understood as humanoid animals, for example as objects in research and popular media. …”

“…CAe investigates both tools to enhance the expressiveness of fi ne and applied arts as well as theoretical approaches that further our understanding of aesthetic evaluation, perception and meaning. Non-Photorealistic Animation and Rendering (NPAR) investigates computational techniques for visual communication. …”

“…Mobile robots navigation includes different interrelated activities: (i) perception, as obtaining and interpreting sensory information; (ii) exploration, as the strategy that guides the robot to select the next direction to go; (iii) mapping, involving the construction of a spatial representation by using the sensory information perceived; (iv) localization, as the strategy to estimate the robot position within the spatial map; (v) path planning, as the strategy to find a path towards a goal location being optimal or not; and (vi) path execution, where motor actions are determined and adapted to environmental changes. …”

“…Indeed, even if law's perspectival view is bound to be betrayed by the realities of perception, it is nonetheless productive of real effects on the world. …”

“…Attitude is fundamental to perception and one's responses to the world. Attitudinal improvement is the single best investment you can make in life because of its direct impact on future outcomes. …”

“…It consists of 12 chapters that are separated into 4 parts: (1) Historical and Cultural Perception, (2) Compositional Analysis, (3) Therapeutic Potential, and (4) Action Mechanism and Future Direction, written by world experts who are reviewing their original and others' research. …”
