Description
Springer Models Of The Visual System 2002 Edition by George K. Hung Kenneth C. Ciuffreda
Some of the best vision scientists in the world in their respective fields have contributed to chapters in this book. They have expertise in a wide variety of fields including bioengineering basic and clinical visual science medicine neurophysiology optometry and psychology. Their combined efforts have resulted in a high quality book that covers modeling and quantitative analysis of optical neurosensory oculomotor perceptual and clinical systems. It includes only those techniques and models that have such fundamentally strong physiological control system and perceptual bases that they will serve as foundations for models and analysis techniques in the future. The book is aimed first towards seniors and beginning graduate students in biomedical engineering neurophysiology optometry and psychology who will gain a broad understanding of quantitative analysis of the visual system. In addition it has sufficient depth in each area to be useful as an updated reference and tutorial for graduate and post-doctoral students as well as general vision scientists.
