The head forms a ball-and-socket joint with the hip (at the acetabulum), being held in place by a ligament (ligamentum teres femoris) within the socket and by strong surrounding ligaments.
In spite of these efforts on ACMs, some basic problems such as weakness to strong surrounding edges, the drift of snaxels due to the changes of illumination conditions and sensitivity to cluttered environments, are still substantial problems in the applications of ACM to real environments.
During these periods, cells typically showed strong surround suppression (e.g., Figure 2A, red, suppression index = 47%).
The receptive field mechanisms described so far convergence of transient ON and OFF inputs, strong surround inhibition, and rectified receptive field subunits led us to hypothesize that VG3-ACs may selectively detect the movements of small objects.
Recent studies found that VG3-ACs respond to light increments (ON) and decrements (OFF) (Grimes et al., 2011), show strong surround suppression, and following optogenetic or electrical stimulation can release glutamate (Lee et al., 2014).
The unusually strong surround suppression in these cells is thought to be a consequence of amacrine cells acting presynaptically to inhibit bipolar cells as well as RGCs (van Wyk et al., 2006; Russell and Werblin, 2010).
It followed the news by generating a strong buzz surrounding its new all-white iBook laptop computer for consumers, adding to an already strong laptop product line that has bolstered revenues.
With so many other strong hitters surrounding him, Pujols could add a second championship to his dazzling résumé.
California and the District of Columbia have strong laws surrounding access to sexual assault counselors, but neither gives victims the right to a copy of their police report.
There are still strong emotions surrounding the night exactly 10 years ago when a car in the entourage of the Lubavitcher rebbe spun out of control, crushing 7-year-old Gavin Cato as he played with his bicycle.
"Back in those days, we all used to hang out in the same clubs together," the 71-year-old says in his warming Ray Winstone-esque tones, a cloud of intensely strong aftershave surrounding his person like an invisible force field.
