"Receptive Fields, Binocular Interaction and Functional Architecture in the Cat's Visual Cortex" by Hubel and Wiesel (1962) reported several important discoveries: orientation columns, the distinct structures of simple and complex receptive fields, and binocular integration.
The initial discovery of orientation-sensitive neurons in V1, arranged according to a retinotopic mapping, suggested an analogy to its function as a low-level feature analyzer.
By Robin Wright June 16, 2016 The gay Muslim filmmaker Parvez Sharma, who long believed his mother's discovery of his sexual orientation caused her death.
The discovery of her sexual orientation, after living as a member of the white, middle-class Protestant majority, clarified "what it means to have privilege and what it means not to have privilege," she said.
Gay pornography, too, can be a valuable resource; a number of youths I spoke with, male and female, said that the availability of online porn had proved critical to their discovery of their sexual orientation.
Starting with the first discoveries on the molecular orientation and morphology of polymeric fibres, the widely used concepts of uniform stress and strain are examined for the analysis of fibre deformation.
The sequence database was reversed so that each protein sequence appeared in both normal and reversed orientations, enabling false discovery rate estimation.
Concerns about reliability, however, have limited the use of docking in fragment discovery: fragments can adopt multiple orientations in the binding site, and scoring functions optimized for larger, drug-like molecules may be inappropriate for fragments.
The research is based on some new discovery that the material enhanced fiber orientations play a key role in micro-topography of FRCMC grinding surface.
The finding that birds use a time-compensated sun compass for orientation is one of the great enduring discoveries of animal navigation research (Kramer, 1950, 1952; Schmidt-Koenig, 1958).
