Deriving the cone fundamentals: a subspace intersection method.

Two ideas, proposed by Thomas Young and James Clerk Maxwell, form the foundations of colour science: (i) three types of retinal receptors encode light under daytime conditions, and (ii) colour matching experiments establish the critical spectral properties of this encoding. Experimental quantification of these ideas is used in international colour standards. However, for many years, the field did not reach consensus on the spectral properties of the biological substrate of colour matching: the spectral sensitivity of the cone fundamentals.

Reproducible Tract Profiles 2 (RTP2) suite, from diffusion MRI acquisition to clinical practice and research.

Diffusion MRI is a complex technique, where new discoveries and implementations occur at a fast pace. The expertise needed for data analyses and accurate and reproducible results is increasingly demanding and requires multidisciplinary collaborations. In the present work we introduce Reproducible Tract Profiles 2 (RTP2), a set of flexible and automated methods to analyze anatomical MRI and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) data for reproducible tractography.

Measuring brain beats: Cardiac-aligned fast functional magnetic resonance imaging signals.

Blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pulse and flow throughout the brain, driven by the cardiac cycle. These fluid dynamics, which are essential to healthy brain function, are characterized by several noninvasive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods. Recent developments in fast MRI, specifically simultaneous multislice acquisition methods, provide a new opportunity to rapidly and broadly assess cardiac-driven flow, including CSF spaces, surface vessels and parenchymal vessels.

Ray-transfer functions for camera simulation of 3D scenes with hidden lens design.

Combining image sensor simulation tools with physically based ray tracing enables the design and evaluation (soft prototyping) of novel imaging systems. These methods can also synthesize physically accurate, labeled images for machine learning applications. One practical limitation of soft prototyping has been simulating the optics precisely: lens manufacturers generally prefer to keep lens design confidential.

Visual encoding: Principles and software.

For more than two centuries scientists and engineers have worked to understand and model how the eye encodes electromagnetic radiation (light). We now understand the principles of how light is transmitted through the optics of the eye and encoded by retinal photoreceptors and light-sensitive neurons. In recent years, new instrumentation has enabled scientists to measure the specific parameters of the optics and photoreceptor encoding.
