At very low spatial frequencies, outside the frequency response range to sinusoidal gratings, the response to square-wave drifting gratings is obtainable from a combination of the response to the single bars of the grating presented in isolation. At higher spatial frequencies this is no longer true. 3. At very low spatial frequencies the responses to square-wave gratings and to missing-fundamental gratings (obtained by subtraction from the square-wave grating of its fundamental gratings (obtained by subtraction from the square-wave grating of its fundamental harmonic) are very similar. 4. At spatial frequencies near the peak of the spatial frequency tuning curve of the cell, the responses to square-wave grating and to sinusoidal gratings are very similar. At these spatial frequencies the response to the missing-fundamental grating is practically zero. 5. At spatial frequencies lower than that of best sensitivity for the cell, the response to square-wave gratings is correlated with the 1st and 3rd harmonic of the stimulus. 6. We conclude that at very low spatial frequencies of the grating the response of cortical cells is correlated with the light or dark edges (or light or dark bars) of the stimulus, because the edges contain high frequencies within the range of sensitivity of the cells. At higher spatial frequencies the results are interpreted best by assuming that cortical cells respond to the harmonics of the visual periodic stimulus. 7. When a background of dynamic visual noise is added to increase the spontaneous discharge of simple cells, their response to visual stimuli becomes linear or quasi-linear. The stimuli could be either single bars or gratings

Evaluation of Autonomous Mowers Weed Control Effect in Globe Artichoke Field
No full textThe development of a fully automated robotic weeder is currently hindered by the lack of a reliable technique for weed-crop detection. Autonomous mowers moving with random trajectories rely on simplified computational resources and have shown potential when applied for agricultural purposes. This study aimed to evaluate the applicability of these autonomous mowers for weed control in globe artichoke. A first trial consisting of the comparison of the performances of three different autonomous mowers (AM1, AM2 and AM3) was carried out evaluating percentage of area mowed and primary energy consumption. The most suitable autonomous mower was tested for its weed control effect and compared with a conventional weed management system. Average weeds height, weed cover percentage, above-ground weed biomass, artichoke yield, primary energy consumption and cost were assessed. All the autonomous mowers achieved a percentage of area mowed around the 80% after 180 min. AM2 was chosen as the best compromise for weed control in the artichoke field (83.83% of area mowed after 180 min of mowing, and a consumption of 430.50 kWh⋅ha−1⋅year−1). The autonomous mower weed management achieved a higher weed control effect (weed biomass of 71.76 vs. 143.67 g d.m.⋅m−2), a lower energy consumption (430.5 vs. 1135.13 kWh⋅ha−1⋅year−1), and a lower cost (EUR 2601.84 vs. EUR 3661.80 ha−1·year−1) compared to the conventional system
