Previous studies often revealed a right-hemisphere specialization for processing the global level of compound visual stimuli. Here we explore whether a similar specialization exists for the detection of intersected contours defined by a chain of local elements. Subjects were presented with arrays of randomly oriented Gabor patches that could contain a global path of collinearly arranged elements in the left or in the right visual hemifield. As expected, the detection accuracy was higher for contours presented to the left visual field/right hemisphere. This difference was absent in two control conditions where the smoothness of the contour was decreased. The results demonstrate that the contour detection, often considered to be driven by lateral coactivation in primary visual cortex, relies on higher-level visual representations that differ between the hemispheres. Furthermore, because contour and non-contour stimuli had the same spatial frequency spectra, the results challenge the view that the right-hemisphere advantage in global processing depends on a specialization for processing low spatial frequencies.

Abstract:In this study we have attempted to classify the acceleration signal, while walking both at horizontal level, and upstairs and downstairs, using wavelet analysis. The acceleration signal close to the body’s center of gravity was measured while the subjects walked in a corridor and up and down a stairway. The data for four steps were analyzed and the Daubecies 3 wavelet transform was applied to the sequential data. The variables to be discriminated were the waveforms related to levels -4 and -5. The sum of the square values at each step was compared at levels -4 and -5. Downstairs walking could be discriminated from other types of walking, showing the largest value for level -5. Walking at horizontal level was compared with upstairs walking for level -4. It was possible to discriminate the continuous dynamic responses to walking by the wavelet transform.

The nonlinearity of the electric vehicle DC charging equipment and the complexity of the charging environment lead to the complex and changeable DC charging signal of the electric vehicle. It is urgent to study the distortion signal recognition method suitable for the electric vehicle DC charging. Focusing on the characteristics of fundamental and ripple in DC charging signal, the Kalman filter algorithm is used to establish the matrix model, and the state variable method is introduced into the filter algorithm to track the parameter state, and the amplitude and phase of the fundamental waves and each secondary ripple are identified; In view of the time-varying characteristics of the unsteady and abrupt signal in the DC charging signal, the stratification and threshold parameters of the wavelet transform are corrected, and a multi-resolution method is established to identify and separate the unsteady and abrupt signals. Identification method of DC charging distortion signal of electric vehicle based on Kalman/modified wavelet transform is used to decompose and identify the signal characteristics of the whole charging process. Experiment results demonstrate that the algorithm can accurately identify ripple, sudden change and unsteady wave during charging. It has higher signal to noise ratio and lower mean root mean square error.
