Intraocular hemorrhageIntraocular hemorrhage (sometimes called hemophthalmos or hemophthalmia) is bleeding inside the eye (oculus in Latin). Bleeding can occur from any structure of the eye where there is vasculature or blood flow, including the anterior chamber, vitreous cavity, retina, choroid, suprachoroidal space, or optic disc. Intraocular hemorrhage may be caused by physical trauma (direct injury to the eye); ocular surgery (such as to repair cataracts); or other diseases, injuries, or disorders (such as diabetes, hypertension, or shaken baby syndrome).
Cataract surgeryCataract surgery, which is also called lens replacement surgery, is the removal of the natural lens (also called the "crystalline lens") of the human eye that has developed a cataract, an opaque or cloudy area. The eye's natural lens is usually replaced with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL). Over time, metabolic changes of the crystalline lens fibres lead to the development of a cataract, causing impairment or loss of vision. Some infants are born with congenital cataracts, and environmental factors may lead to cataract formation.
Presbytiethumb|Liste d'ingrédients en petits caractères difficile à lire pour un presbyte La presbytie, du mot grec presbys πρέσβυς, qui signifie « vieil homme » ou « ancien », est un trouble de la vision qui rend difficile la focalisation de la vision pour lire ou effectuer un travail de près. Ce n'est pas une maladie, mais un processus de vieillissement normal de l'œil et plus particulièrement du cristallin qui se sclérose en se durcissant. Ce processus du vieillissement commence dès la naissance, mais son effet apparaît classiquement entre 40 et 45 ans.
Object recognition (cognitive science)Visual object recognition refers to the ability to identify the objects in view based on visual input. One important signature of visual object recognition is "object invariance", or the ability to identify objects across changes in the detailed context in which objects are viewed, including changes in illumination, object pose, and background context. Neuropsychological evidence affirms that there are four specific stages identified in the process of object recognition.
Activity recognitionActivity recognition aims to recognize the actions and goals of one or more agents from a series of observations on the agents' actions and the environmental conditions. Since the 1980s, this research field has captured the attention of several computer science communities due to its strength in providing personalized support for many different applications and its connection to many different fields of study such as medicine, human-computer interaction, or sociology.
Reconnaissance gestuelleGesture recognition is a topic in computer science and language technology with the goal of interpreting human gestures via mathematical algorithms. It is a subdiscipline of computer vision. Gestures can originate from any bodily motion or state, but commonly originate from the face or hand. Focuses in the field include emotion recognition from face and hand gesture recognition since they are all expressions. Users can make simple gestures to control or interact with devices without physically touching them.
Détection d'objetthumb|Détection de visage avec la méthode de Viola et Jones. En vision par ordinateur on désigne par détection d'objet (ou classification d'objet) une méthode permettant de détecter la présence d'une instance (reconnaissance d'objet) ou d'une classe d'objets dans une . Une attention particulière est portée à la détection de visage et la détection de personne. Ces méthodes font souvent appel à l'apprentissage supervisé et ont des applications dans de multiples domaines, tels la ou la vidéo surveillance.
Vision scienceVision science is the scientific study of visual perception. Researchers in vision science can be called vision scientists, especially if their research spans some of the science's many disciplines. Vision science encompasses all studies of vision, such as how human and non-human organisms process visual information, how conscious visual perception works in humans, how to exploit visual perception for effective communication, and how artificial systems can do the same tasks.
Intelligence artificiellevignette|redresse=0.8|Les assistants personnels intelligents sont l'une des applications concrètes de l'intelligence artificielle dans les années 2010. L'intelligence artificielle (IA) est un ensemble de théories et de techniques visant à réaliser des machines capables de simuler l'intelligence humaine. Souvent classée dans le groupe des mathématiques et des sciences cognitives, elle fait appel à la neurobiologie computationnelle (particulièrement aux réseaux neuronaux) et à la logique mathématique (partie des mathématiques et de la philosophie).
NeuroprostheticsNeuroprosthetics (also called neural prosthetics) is a discipline related to neuroscience and biomedical engineering concerned with developing neural prostheses. They are sometimes contrasted with a brain–computer interface, which connects the brain to a computer rather than a device meant to replace missing biological functionality. Neural prostheses are a series of devices that can substitute a motor, sensory or cognitive modality that might have been damaged as a result of an injury or a disease.
