Mental number representation relies on mapping numerosity based on nonsymbolic stimuli to symbolic magnitudes. It is known that mental number representation builds on a logarithmic scale, and thus numerosity decisions result in underestimation. In the current study, we investigated the temporal dynamics of numerosity perception in four experiments by employing the response-deadline SAT procedure. We presented random number of dots and required participants to make a numerosity judgment by comparing the perceived number of dots to 50. Using temporal dynamics in numerosity perception allowed us to observe a response bias at early decisions and a systematic underestimation at late decisions. In all three experiments, providing feedback diminished the magnitude of underestimation, whereas in Experiment 3 the absence of feedback resulted in greater underestimation errors. These results were in accordance with the findings that suggested feedback is necessary for the calibration of the mental number representation.

Learning Deep Temporal Representations for fMRI Brain Decoding Firat, Orhan; Aksan, Emre; Oztekin, Ilke; Yarman Vural, Fatoş Tunay (2015-07-11) Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) produces low number of samples in high dimensional vector spaces which is hardly adequate for brain decoding tasks. In this study, we propose a combination of autoencoding and temporal convolutional neural network architecture which aims to reduce the feature dimensionality along with improved classification performance. The proposed network learns temporal representations of voxel intensities at each layer of the network by leveraging unlabeled fMRI data with re...
Nested local symmetry set Tarı, Zehra Sibel (Elsevier BV, 2000-08-01) A local-symmetry-based representation for shapes in arbitrary dimensions and a method for its computation are presented. The method depends on analyzing the Hessian of a specific boundaryness function, v, which is computed as the minimizer of an energy functional. The method is basically a generalized ridge finding scheme in which the ridges are defined in terms of the orbit of the gradient vector del v under the action of the Hessian of v. Once the ridges are determined, the local extrema of the magnitude ...
Error analysis and feasibility study of dynamic stiffness matrix-based damping matrix identification Özgen, Gökhan Osman (Elsevier BV, 2009-02-06) Developing a method to formulate a damping matrix that represents the actual spatial distribution and mechanism of damping of the dynamic system has been an elusive goal. The dynamic stiffness matrix (DSM)-based damping identification method proposed by Lee and Kim is attractive and promising because it identifies the damping matrix from the measured DSM without relying on any unfounded assumptions. However, in ensuing works it was found that damping matrices identified from the method had unexpected forms ...
RESPONSE BIAS SHIFT FOR POSITIVE WORDS IN OLDER ADULTS IN A SURPRISE RECOGNITION MEMORY TASK: AN INCIDENTAL ENCODING STUDY KAYNAK, HANDE; Gökçay, Didem (2017-01-01) Introduction: Although the advantages of positive words on memory enhancement have been documented, the specific effects of the two prominent emotional dimensions (valence and arousal) under incidental encoding require further investigation. The objective is to study memory accuracy and response bias for positive/negative and highly/medium arousing words in a surprise old/new recognition memory paradigm under incidental encoding.
Intelligent analysis of chaos roughness in regularity of walk for a two legged robot Kaygisiz, BH; Erkmen, İsmet; Erkmen, Aydan Müşerref (Elsevier BV, 2006-07-01) We describe in this paper a new approach to the identification of the chaotic boundaries of regular (periodic and quasiperiodic) regions in nonlinear systems, using cell mapping equipped with measures of fractal dimension and rough sets. The proposed fractal-rough set approach considers a state space divided into cells where cell trajectories are determined using cell to cell mapping technique. All image cells in the state space, equipped with their individual fractal dimension are then classified as being ...
