In the meantime please go through the following: " A handful of brain cells can play around with complex visual images on a computer screen, scientists have discovered. The study found that when volunteers had their brains connected to a computer displaying two merged images, they could force the computer to display one of the images and discard the other. The signals transmitted from each subject's brain to the computer were derived from just a small number of brain cells, reports the Daily Mail, citing the study published in the journal Nature. The subjects were able to use their thoughts to override the images they saw on the computer screen, said Itzhak Fried, professor of neurosurgery at the University of California, Los Angeles, US, who led the study. The discovery comes as a boost for development of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), devices that allow people to control computers or other devices with their thoughts. BCIs have been hailed as the future for allowing people with locked-in syndrome to communicate or control prosthetic limbs using only their minds. Past studies have shown how BCIs can be used perform simple tasks, such as controlling a computer cursor, with just a few brain cells. This study, however, used BCI technology to understand how thoughts and decisions are shaped by a group of brain cells. 5 SVUCE ENGINEER November 01, 2010 Vol. : 2010 Issue No: Nov_01 This is a novel and elegant use of a brain-computer interface to explore how the brain directs attention and makes choices, said Debra Babcock, a program director at the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke in the US."

Really nice to read about MIT's research on restoring the sight of blind people. After reading all these I understood that Human Eye is one of the most complex Master piece created by God. Am seeing the major obstacles/research areas (keeping the brain processing of visuals aside) to make it a reality lies in 1. creating millions of artificial neurons that sense and send signals at a speed to achieve natural vision. 2. Implanting the bionic eye into human body.

I am taking the liberty to post in the thread. Yes parallel processing is done and even then images need to be processed to either represent or recognize the face. Parallel processing offers higher speeds. You could refer to Professor Rama Chellappa (Maryland), Thomas Huang (Illinois) work as well as my own professor R.L. Kashyap's (Purdue retired) work. Heat sensing is for recognizing shapes and bio materials, it will not be very good in representing details like eyes etc, as reconstruction will take more effort. 6 SVUCE ENGINEER November 01, 2010 Vol. : 2010 Issue No: Nov_01 About my credentials - not much I teach at Penn State in USA.

Hi Soundar Kumar, Felt very good to know that so much is happening in the background. Regarding the eye simulation: I've got a doubt. Why can we use the parallel processors to recognize a face, instead of doing the image processing in the front end? Are there any issues with such approaches. What about the heat sensors? Can they benefit us in some way or the other? Regarding the brain simulation: And since a new synapse is formed for every event in the life, which fade away if not recollected frequently, can't we develop an algorithm that can simulate the same process. But then again it would be an idle one and not a common human brain. With due respect for Soundar Kumar, can I know your credentials please.

The other points that meet the condition have to do with special circles around the South 10 SVUCE ENGINEER November 01, 2010 Vol. : 2010 Issue No: Nov_01 Pole that have the following property: their circumferences are 10/n km where n = 1, 2, 3, . . . Let circle1 be the circle with 10 km circumference. After walking east for 10 km, she is back at where she started. Let circle2 be the circle with 10/2 = 5 km circumference. After walking 10 km east, she is still back at where she started. And so on for n = any positive integer. Each of these circles will be the second leg of the journey. The starting point of the journey will be any point 10 km north of where the special circle lies. (These starting points also form a circle.) Then the first leg would be to travel 10 km south to the special circle, the second leg would be to walk east around the special circle for 10 km arriving back where the second leg started, and the third leg would be to walk north for 10 km (retracing exactly the steps of the first leg) to arrive back at the starting point. So, we have infinite points on the earth satisfying such condition. Everything is done with an assumption that Earth is a spherical. Congratulations to V.Prasada Rao.(Roll No 1656,1967-72,Mech.)

From: "Soundar Kumara" <u1o@engr.psu.edu> To: "Vidya Panati Sagar01" <Vidya_Sagar01@infosys.com>, "naidu@bogineni.com" <naidu@bogineni.com> The three books are good and are essentially trying to explore the endless possibilities of human mind/brain complex. Paulo Coelho has written many books and I find him fascinating he mainly takes the readers into the realm of magical reality. I never read Robin Sharma. In eye simulation (or vision simulation) there are many components. Hubel & Wiesel in 1959. found two types of cells in visual primary cortex called simple cell and complex cell, and also proposed a cascading model of these two type of cells. Among Artificial Neural Networks it is very well known that NeoCognitron by Fukushima is a natural extension of these cascading models. Back propagation networks are not really useful for this endeavor. Though the number of neurons are large, the question does not relate to it. It is more on understanding the connections between various components that are responsible for vision. Simulating the eye in general falls under simulating vision. The density of the network is a well known problem. Then there is the cognition aspect. If you are simply replicating on and off of vision, a camera simulates human vision. However recognition is also an integral part of vision. Pure image processing is the front end to simulating vision. I think looking into MIT media labs (as they have developed some devices which stimulate the ophthalmic center to make the blind see) literature may be useful. 18 SVUCE ENGINEER November 01, 2010 Vol. : 2010 Issue No: Nov_01 One researcher who has done lot of work in Vision/Cognition that comes to my mind is Professor Vilayanur Ramachandran. You can check his website or go to google scholar to get his publications. His book Phantoms of the brain is an extrordinary book Here are his books: # Phantoms in the Brain : Probing the Mysteries of the Human Mind, coauthor Sandra Blakeslee, 1998, ISBN 0-688-17217-2 # The Encyclopedia of the Human Brain (editor-in-chief) ISBN 0-12-227210-2 # The Emerging Mind, 2003, ISBN 1-86197-303-9 # A Brief Tour of Human Consciousness: From Impostor Poodles to Purple Numbers, 2005, ISBN 0-13187278-8 (paperback edition) I don't work in this area and hence am constrained by my understanding. In order to understand this field it may be beneficial to start from the cognition view point and then bring in computation, like ANNs etc. I wish I had more time to talk about this - we are all bound by 24hrs in a day.

The following few lines from the book “The monk who sold his Ferrari” by Robin S.

Best Regards, Bogineni Chenchu Rama Naidu President SVUCE Alumni Association (908) 410 7646 (Cell-USA) PS: You will find Indian/Andhra students in all US universities. All universities are safe. Don't worry. As visiting professor at Rutgers University, NJ, I taught Digital Systems Design to ECE students. I found many Hyderabad girls doing MS without financial assistanship. They worked on part-time jobs in the University/library and earned for their food. They were happy and got MS in flying colors. ____________________________________________________________________________________ November 15, 2009 Road map for MSAdmission in the USA 22 SVUCE ENGINEER November 01, 2010 Vol. : 2010 Issue No: Nov_01 1.

I am studying B.Tech in S.V.U.C.E in the stream of Computer Science and Engineering. I am a student with 70% in academics in B.Tech till now. I have written GRE exam on October. I have got a score of 1290 out of 1600. I am going to write TOEFL on December 12. I want to do MS in a nice university in US. I am thinking to apply to universities as early as possible before January. So, with respect to my profile can you please suggest five nice profile universities in US considering the area of location where indians will be somewhat better. ================================================================================ 23 SVUCE ENGINEER November 01, 2010 Vol. : 2010 Issue No: Nov_01 ================================================================================ SVUCE ENGINEER Founder: Er.
