YNiC seminar today
by rem 20 Feb '14

20 Feb '14

Dear Users This afternoon (4.15 pm in YNiC open plan) there will be an internal project proposal presentation given by Karla Evans. The title of Karla's talk is "Global image processing". Abstract: Experiments have shown that people can rapidly determine if categories such as “animal” or “beach” are present in scenes that are presented for only a few milliseconds. Typically, observers in these experiments report on one pre-specified category. My work shows that observers can rapidly extract information about multiple categories. Moreover, the findings demonstrate task-dependent interactions between accumulating information about different categories in a scene that are in some cases destructive. I believe that the explanation for this destructive interference is that subjects have learned the spatiotemporal statistics of the trials, which indicate that single targets are the norm: the presence of a beach would almost always correlate with the absence of an animal. My goal is to probe the neuronal correlates of this process to better understand the mechanism of non-selective gist categorization. In order to do this I will present a project plan that exploits repetition attenuation in order study the task-dependent interaction during scene categorisation. Everyone is welcome to attend and refreshments will be served afterwards. Best wishes Rebecca -- ************************************************************************ Dr. Rebecca E.

Biocentre bike sheds
by Gary Green 17 Feb '14

17 Feb '14

Dear Users York Science Park have issued this notice ------------ Works will be commencing w/c 24th February on upgrades to the Biocentre bike store security and facilities and will hopefully be completed by the end of that week, weather permitting. A brief description of upgrade works is as follows: All gates to be re hung for extra strength and security. The two middle gates will be permanently closed, which will create extra room for bike stands. The two end gates will be fitted with Digi-locks and used as access and egress to the bike store. The codes for these will be given out on request once the works are completed. The original bike stands will be reinstalled to give a more organised layout, leaving room for users to manoeuvre easier. Extra wall hung bike racks will also be installed. Any regular users who require advanced notification of the code for the gates are requested to inform us of their contact details by return of this notice. We plan to complete the works in two sections, which would result in half the store being out of action during this work, then moving onto the other half once completed. We apologise in advance for the disruption these works might cause but we are confident that the extra security will be a massive benefit to cycle users in the future. Regards YSPL Team York Science Park Ltd T: 01904 435100 E: enquiries(a)yorksciencepark.co.uk W: www.yorksciencepark.co.uk --
