Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the proceedings of the Ninth European Conference on Eye Movements (ECEM 9), held in Ulm, Germany, on September 23-26, 1997. ECEM 9 con tinued a series of conferences initiated by Rudolf Groner of Bern, Switzerland, in 1981 which, from its very beginning, has brought together scientists from very diverse fields with a common interest in eye movements. About 40 of the papers presented at ECEM 9 have been selected for presentation in full length while others are rendered in condensed form. There is a broad spectrum of motives why people have become involved in, and fas cinated by, eye movement research. Neuroscientists have been allured by the prospect of understanding anatomical findings, single unit recordings, and the sequels of experimental lesions in terms of the clearly defined system requirements and the well documented be havioural repertoire of the oculomotor system. Others have been attracted by the richness of this repertoire and its dependence on an intricate hierarchy of factors spanning from "simple" reflexes to visual pattern recognition and spatio-temporal prediction. Neurolo gists, neuro-ophthalmologists and neuro-otologists have long standing experience with eye movements as sensitive indicators of lesions in the brain stem, the midbrain, and the cere bellum. By studying oculomotor malfunctions they have made, and are continuing to make, important contributions to our understanding of oculomotor functions.

Download or read book Development of the Oculomotor Nerve written by Brielle Bjorke and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ability to visually locate and follow objects of interest relies on ocular motor systems that control eye movements. The ocular motor system includes motor neurons located in the CNS that innervate the extraocular muscles surrounding the eye. These systems must perform both slow and fast eye muscle movements to accommodate head and body motion, smooth pursuit, vergence and saccadic functions, as well as respond to balance signals from the vestibular-ocular system. Nerves controlling the extraocular muscles (EOM) must function with a high degree of accuracy, thus placing a demand on proper motor neuron development and innervation. Three cranial nerves innervate the EOMs: cranial nerves III, IV and VI. Errors in the development of these nerves can lead to congenital cranial dysinnervation disorders, resulting in eye alignment errors termed strabismus. Among them, Duane syndrome is directly related to errors in the development of the oculomotor nerve, cranial nerve III (nIII). Unfortunately, the fundamental cause of these disorders remains unknown. One way of addressing these problems is to understand development of the oculomotor system at the cellular and molecular level. Although numerous studies have described cellular and molecular events in the development of the hindbrain and spinal motor systems, less attention has been placed on the midbrain. However, the midbrain houses somatic motor neurons that innervate four of the six extraocular muscles, as well as the visceral neurons that innervate the ciliary ganglion to control eye movement and pupil dilation. These populations reside together in the ventral midbrain and are collectively termed neurons of the oculomotor complex (OMC). To begin to understand disorders influencing the function of the oculomotor system I have reviewed known factors influencing the development of the OMC--from initial OMC differentiation to EOM innervation, as well as probed the function of the guidance cue Slit in these processes. This dissertation is divided into four chapters aimed at reviewing events and factors working in OM development (Chapters 1,3) and basic experiments to determine the role that Slit plays in OMC development (Chapters 2,4). In Chapter 1, I review both old and new studies on the development of the midbrain and OMC neurons. Although the development of the OMC has received more recent attention, a complete review is lacking. I begin by describing the components of the vertebrate OMC and the proposed birth date of its somatic and visceral components. I then describe events and factors that regulate OMC development and later cell death. In Chapter 2, I describe the migration of a subset of OMC neurons, the dorsal rectus motor neurons, across the ventral midbrain. To examine factors that may influence this migration, I focused on the expression of classic guidance cues. I further genetically manipulated the expression of these cues to find that the Slit family of midline repellents act to inhibit premature migration. In Chapter 3, I review prior studies of guidance cues and mechanism that guide the outgrowth and navigation of the OMN toward the EOMs.In Chapter 4, I describe preliminary studies to determine the role Slit signals may have in OMN guidance and EOM innervation. The research findings outlined in chapters 2 and 4 add to understanding the cellular and molecular events that lead to proper development of the OMC and cranial nerve III.

Current Trends in Eye Tracking Research presents the work of more than 50 researchers and academics, showcasing groundbreaking studies and innovative ways of applying eye tracking technologies to interesting research problems. The book covers the current output of a number of pioneering research laboratories, detailing their work on eye tracking and the visual system, alignment and EEG data, marketing and social applications, and eye tracking in education. Featuring creative uses of existing technology as well as inventive implementation of new technology in a range of research contexts and disciplines, this new publication is compelling proof of the growing importance of this exciting and fast-moving area of scientific endeavor.
Download or read book Clinical and Basic Oculomotor Research written by Stefano Ramat and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 2005-04-08 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides a snapshot of the state of the art of oculomotor and vestibular research, focusing on the bridge between laboratory and clinical research and the interdisciplinary relationships among ophthalmology, neurology, and otology. A common theme in contemporary neuroscience is how the brain learns and adapts at the most basic levels and how patients can benefit from this type of research. Recent advances in the physiology and anatomy of the eye muscles and other orbital structures and their relevance to strabismus sets the stage in the first section. Then, attention shifts to the vestibular system, beginning with the peripheral applications to clinical neuro-otology, including adaptive control of vestibular reflexes and the implications for programs of physical rehabilitation of patients. Further chapters are directed toward the mechanisms of eye movement control developed specifically in foveate species -- saccades, pursuit, and vergence -- here with an emphasis on applications to clinical neurology and neuro-ophthalmology. Finally, the role of higher-level cerebral processing in the control of eye movements is presented in the framework of state-of-the-art brain imaging and sophisticated behavioral testing paradigms in both humans and experimental animals. The volume provides a critical update from a number of disciplines -- both clinical and basic -- to bring basic physiology to the bedside and vice versa.

Download or read book Models of Oculomotor Control written by George K. Hung and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2001 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph is a structured review of models of oculomotor control systems that is geared toward biomedical engineers, vision scientists, and optometry students. It aims to provide the biomedical engineer with a thorough understanding of how various engineering control principles are applied to oculomotor systems, and the non-engineer with knowledge of how various physiological and clinical concepts can be represented quantitatively and efficiently by control system models.Basic control system concepts and oculomotor physiology are first introduced, along with a glossary, to provide background for the more advanced topics. Then, these concepts are applied to static linear and nonlinear analysis of various oculomotor systems. In addition, advanced topics are presented on the application of dynamic linear and nonlinear modeling techniques to the oculomotor system, with a particular emphasis on myopia development. This book can thus serve as a unique reference for quantitative analysis of oculomotor control, and as a foundation for future research on the oculomotor system.
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Eye Movements written by Simon Liversedge and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2011-08-18 with total page 1048 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past few years, there has been an explosion of eye movement research in cognitive science and neuroscience. This has been due to the availability of 'off the shelf' eye trackers, along with software to allow the easy acquisition and analysis of eye movement data. Accompanying this has been a realisation that eye movement data can be informative about many different aspects of perceptual and cognitive processing. Eye movements have been used to examine the visual and cognitive processes underpinning a much broader range of human activities, including, language production, dialogue, human computer interaction, driving behaviour, sporting performance, and emotional states. Finally, in the past thirty years, there have been real advances in our understanding of the neural processes that underpin eye movement behaviour. The Oxford Handbook of Eye Movements provides the first comprehensive review of the entire field of eye movement research. In over fifty chapters, it reviews the developments that have so far taken place, the areas actively being researched, and looks at how the field is likely to devlop in the coming years. The first section considers historical and background material, before moving onto section 2 on the neural basis of eye movements. The third and fourth sections looks at visual cognition and eye movements and eye movement pathology and development. The final sections consider eye movements and reading and language processing and eye movements. Bringing together cutting edge research from and international team of leading psychologists, neuroscientists, and vision researchers, this book is the definitive reference work in this field.
Download or read book Eye Tracking written by Kenneth Holmqvist and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2011-09-22 with total page 793 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We make 3-5 eye movements per second, and these movements are crucial in helping us deal with the vast amounts of information we encounter in our everyday lives. In recent years, thanks to the development of eye tracking technology, there has been a growing interest in monitoring and measuring these movements, with a view to understanding how we attend to and process the visual information we encounter Eye tracking as a research tool is now more accessible than ever, and is growing in popularity amongst researchers from a whole host of different disciplines. Usability analysts, sports scientists, cognitive psychologists, reading researchers, psycholinguists, neurophysiologists, electrical engineers, and others, all have a vested interest in eye tracking for different reasons. The ability to record eye-movements has helped advance our science and led to technological innovations. However, the growth of eye tracking in recent years has also presented a variety of challenges - in particular the issue of how to design an eye-tracking experiment, and how to analyse the data. This book is a much needed comprehensive handbook of eye tracking methodology. It describes how to evaluate and acquire an eye-tracker, how to plan and design an eye tracking study, and how to record and analyse eye-movement data. Besides technical details and theory, the heart of this book revolves around practicality - how raw data samples are converted into fixations and saccades using event detection algorithms, how the different representations of eye movement data are calculated using AOIs, heat maps and scanpaths, and how all the measures of eye movements relate to these processes. Part I presents the technology and skills needed to perform high-quality research with eye-trackers. Part II covers the predominant methods applied to the data which eye-trackers record. These include the parsing of raw sample data into oculomotor events, and how to calculate other representations of eye movements such as heat maps and transition matrices. Part III gives a comprehensive outline of the measures which can be calculated using the events and representations described in Part II. This is a taxonomy of the measures available to eye-tracking researchers, sorted by type of movement of the eyes and type of analysis. For anyone in the sciences considering conducting research involving eye-tracking, this book will be an essential reference work.
