This does not imply that the anterior temporal area is the only possible site of auditory-visual convergence in size processing.
These results support the hypothesis of multi-sensory convergence of visual and non-visual cues to provide consistent rotation information, which may be critical for encoding rotations, in addition to achieving a rotation-invariant representation of heading.
Convergence was checked using the Gelman Rubin statistic, and a visual inspection demonstrated satisfactory convergence by 20,000 iterations.
Nathalie E. Paton, a sociologist cited by Gladwell, has studied the self-produced videos of many post-Columbine shooters and identified an over-all "convergence of visual productions" that includes this spreading of one's arms wide.
Functional neuroimaging studies have demonstrated convergence of visual and haptic shape processing in the intraparietal sulcus (IPS) and the lateral occipital complex (LOC) [19] [22].
On the one hand, prolonged convergence causes visual fatigue and discomfort.
We assessed convergence by visual inspection of individual chains to ascertain good mixing and lack of trends (Kuhner 2009).
Over the long term, the convergence of visual and auditory signals reinforces an enduring spatial map in the IC.
For BSSVS and BayesC, the estimated value of the SNP variance component was plotted for each iteration in the Gibbs chain, for visual inspection of its convergence.
MCMC output was inspected for convergence by visual inspection of the chain and by calculation of effective sample size statistics, as implemented in Tracer v1.5 http://tree.bio.ed.ac.uk.ac.uk
For instance, the premotor cortex is a polymodal integration area, with convergence of visual, auditory, and somatosensory inputs (e.g., Graziano and Gandhi 2000; Graziano 2001), an information related to motor intention used for preparation of voluntary movement (e.g., Boussaoud et al. 1995).
