Abstract:

Eye movements are a powerful tool to examine cognitive processes. However, in most paradigms little is known about the dynamics present in sequences of saccades and fixations. In particular, the control of fixation durations has been widely neglected in most tasks. As a notable exception, both spatial and temporal aspects of eye-movement control have been thoroughly investigated during reading. There, the scientific discourse was dominated by three controversies, (i), the role of oculomotor vs. cognitive processing on eye-movement control, (ii) the serial vs. parallel processing of words, and,

Abstract:

Tourism is one of the most rapidly developing industries in the world. The study of spatio-temporal movement models of tourists are undertaken in variety of disciplines such as tourism, geography, mathematics, economics and artificial intelligence. Knowledge from these different fields has been difficult to integrate because tourist movement research has been conducted at different spatial and temporal scales. This thesis establishes a methodology for modelling the spatial-temporal movement of tourists and defines the spatial-temporal movement of tourists at both the macro and micro level.

Abstract:

Micro-facial expressions are fast, subtle movements of facial muscles that occur when someone is attempting to conceal their true emotion. Detecting these movements for a human is di�cult, as the movement could appear and disappear within half of a second. Recently, research into detecting micro-facial movements using computer vision and other techniques has emerged with the aim of outperforming a human. The motivation behind a lot of this research is the potential applications in security, healthcare and emotional-based training. The research has also introduced some ethical concerns on wheth

Over the last decade, significant progress has been made in task planning to explore temporal and numerical features of the real world. Interaction between time and metric fluents and temporal coordination problems have been well-addressed by innovative approaches in planning and scheduling. A standardised language, PDDL, has enabled modelling the conceptual models and benchmarking the work of numerous researchers since it was released. Although PDDL is an expressive modelling language, a significant limitation is imposed on the structure of actions: the parameters of actions are restricted to

Abstract:

Recently separate control systems for postural and movement control have been found in primates. Dystonia is a hyperkinetic movement disorder and its cause it not well understood. We have observed that dystonia patients have preserved fine movement control, but difficulty maintaining the appropriate and sustained posture that supports these movements. Postural control requires multiple modalities of sensory input such as cutaneous, proprioceptive, vestibular and visual stimuli. Through clinical observation, dystonia is improved by sensory alteration. Sensorimotor integration dysfunction has be

Abstract:

Translesion synthesis is a potentially mutagenic method of damage encountered by replication forks in the DNA template. The high-fidelity replicative polymerase can be replaced by a translesion polymerase which is better able to accommodate damaged or mismatched bases in its active site. Mutation occurs due to the non- or mis-instructional nature of the lesion and due to the naturally lower fidelity of these specialised polymerases. In the budding yeast <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i> translesion synthesis is controlled by ubiquitination of the DNA sliding clamp PCNA, but in vertebrates the si

Abstract:

Goal-directed arm movements performed in the standing position potentially disturb the body's equilibrium as a result of the multi-linked structure of the musculoskeletal system. To compensate for these disturbances and ensure that stability is maintained, the central nervous system (CNS) organizes postural adjustments preceding and accompanying the voluntary movement in a feedforward manner (Massion 1992) using knowledge of the dynamics of the body (Bouisset and Zattara 1981). To date, most studies investigating the control of posture during voluntary movements in humans have focused on eithe

Athletic potential is one of the most complex human traits. An elite athlete is produced from a complex interaction of an innumerable number of traits exhibited by the athlete. However, it’s not clear whether these traits are innate, allowing the athlete to excel, or, alternatively, are a consequence of practice. To be successful, athletes rely heavily on sensory information from the visual and vestibular systems. This study investigated the relationship eye movement control has with innate athleticism by comparing the saccadic and Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex (VOR) responses of former, no longer p

The topic of this thesis is cognitive control: how the brain organises itself to perform the many tasks it is capable of and how it switches flexibly among them. Task-switching experiments reveal a substantial cost in reaction time and accuracy after a switch in tasks. This "switch cost" is reduced by preparation (suggesting anticipatory task-set reconfiguration), but not eliminated. The thesis focuses on the sources of the "residual" cost. Most accounts attribute it to response selection being prolonged on a task-switch trial by task conflict, e.g. by 'task-set inertia' — persisting activatio
