They used multidimensional scaling (MDS) to look at how moderately object-selective neurons encode the similarity of objects.
It was found that moderately object-selective visually responsive AIP neurons respond to common combinations of geometric features shared by similar objects such as shape, size, and/or orientation.
This explanation was vulnerable to a large number of objections – for example, it is clearly easier to throw a moderately heavy object, such as a stone, than a light object, such as a bean, whereas light objects ought to be more susceptible than others to motions of the air.
Make or choose one or more small, moderately thin objects without narrow or undercut parts, and with interesting relief, to copy.
A significant portion of AIP neurons were moderately selective for object shape, position, orientation, and size.
| The downtown auctioneer Phillips will hold one of its quarterly "Saturday@Phillips" auctions of moderately priced photographs, design objects, and jewelry (June 2), as well as a selling exhibition devoted to works by the sagelike New York artist Daniel Brush (May 31-June 30).
Similar issues are involved in retrieving information about highly related, as opposed to moderately or weakly related, objects from memory (Wagner et al. 2001; Badre et al. 2005).
Interestingly, modulation of fixation duration and the number of fixations for both cultures seemed largely in response to the novelty or repetition of objects, and only moderately sensitive to the manipulation of backgrounds, suggesting that object processing was important in both cultures, but less so for East Asians.
The first number is sought by means of attempts to determine the distances to certain types of stellar objects located in moderately distant galaxies.
Such a strategy required both anatomical adaptations that allowed organisms to collect and glue objects and also moderately sophisticated nervous systems to co-ordinate this behavior.
