Abstract:
Visual search traditionally has two main competing theories of parallel and serial search and this architectural issue has not been solved to this day. The latest developments in the field have suggested a possibility that response time distributions may aid in differentiating the two competing theories. For this purpose we have used the best available serial model Competitive Guided Search and two biologically-plausible parallel models inspired by the theory of biased competition. The parallel models adopted a winner-take-all mechanism from Selective Attention for Identification Model as base

Abstract:
Visual object classifcation and detection are major problems in contemporary com- puter vision. State-of-art algorithms allow thousands of visual objects to be learned and recognized, under a wide range of variations including lighting changes, occlusion and point of view etc. However, only a small fraction of the literature addresses the problem of variation in depictive styles (photographs, drawings, paintings etc.). This is a challenging gap but the ability to process images of all depictive styles and not just photographs has potential value across many applications. This thesis aims to na

This thesis focuses on modelling visual attention in tasks in which vision interacts with language and other sources of contextual information. The work is based on insights provided by experimental studies in visual cognition and psycholinguistics, particularly cross-modal processing.

Moreover we investigate the existence of high level structure of the scan-paths and applicability of tools used in Natural Language Processing in the analysis of this structure. We show

Flying fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster) locate a concealed appetitive odour source most accurately in environments containing vertical visual contrasts (Frye et al, 2003). To investigate how visuomotor and olfactory responses interact to cause this phenomenon, I implement a tracking system capable of recording flies’ flight trajectories in three dimensions. I examine free-flight behaviour in three different visual environments, with and without food odour present. While odour localisation is facilitated by a random chequerboard pattern compared to a horizontally striped one, a single vert

Such datasets are typically affected by considerable background variations caused by global and partial illumination variations, gradual and sudden lighting condition changes, and non-stationary backgrounds. The large variation of backgrounds in typical outdoor video sequences requires highly adaptable and robust models able to represent the background at any time instance with sufficient accuracy.

The visual system is confronted with the daunting task of extracting behaviourally relevant visual information from noisy and ambiguous patterns of luminance falling on the retina.

This thesis explores the question of how the computations performed by neurons in the visual hierarchy create behaviourally relevant representations.

Electrical stimulation of the retina affected by photoreceptor loss (e.g., cases of retinitis pigmentosa) elicits the perception of luminous spots (so-called phosphenes) in the visual field. This phenomenon, attributed to the relatively high survival rates of neurons comprising the retina's inner layer, serves as the cornerstone of efforts to provide a microelectronic retinal prosthesis -- a device analogous to the cochlear implant. This thesis concerns phosphenes -- their elicitation and modulation, and, in turn, image analysis for use in a prosthesis. This thesis begins with a comparative r

Abstract:
From the airport security guard monitoring luggage to the rushed commuter looking for their car keys, visual search is one of the most common requirements of our visual system. Despite its ubiquity, many aspects of visual search remain unaccounted for by computational models. Difficulty arises when trying to account for any internal biases of an observer undertaking a search task or trying to decompose an image of a natural scene into relevant fundamental properties. Previous studies have attempted to understand visual search by using highly simplified stimuli, such as discrete search arrays.

Abstract:
Autonomous visual navigation algorithms for ground mobile robotic systems working in unstructured environments have been extensively studied for decades. Among these work, algorithm performance evaluations between different design configurations mainly involve the use of benchmark datasets with a limited number of real-world trails. Such evaluations, however, have difficulties to provide sufficient statistical power for performance quantification. In addition, they are unable to independently assess the algorithm robustness to individual realistic uncertainty sources, including the environment
