	Cyclopean architecture - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cyclopean architecture was a characteristic building style of Mycenaean Greek civilization.
		Cyclopean ruins are found at Greek, Etruscan, south Indian, Talayotic, and Anatolian sites.
		The name comes from the mythical giants Cyclops, to whom the building of such enormous walls was attributed.

		The method of claim 1 wherein the cyclopean image is associated with a current cyclopean coordinate and further comprising: computing the backward probability distribution of the stereo disparity based on a distribution of disparity gradients for a next cyclopean coordinate given the current cyclopean coordinate.
		The system of claim 19 wherein the cyclopean image is associated with a current cyclopean coordinate and the cyclopean image generator computes an intensity expectation at the current cyclopean coordinate over and a posterior mean based on the intensity expectation and the joint-posterior density of the stereo disparity with a disparity gradient.

	Journal of Vision - New data support previous findings: cyclopean eye is relevant for predicting visual direction, by ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Visual direction in the context of cyclopean vision continues to be a topic of debate.
		Erkelens and van Ee (2002) have claimed that the concept of a cyclopean eye is irrelevant, especially for predicting visual direction of monocular stimuli during a purely visual task.
		We challenge their claim and provide support for the relevance of the cyclopean eye concept and its usefulness in predicting absolute visual direction of monocular stimuli.

	Integrating Flying and Fish Tank Metaphors with Cyclopean Scale
		The central insight developed in the paper is that a geometric transformation that they call the "cyclopean scale" enables the simple combination of flying and fish tank VR interaction metaphors.
		Cyclopean scale continuously scales the working environment to lie just behind the screen in terms of stereoscopic depth.
		Cyclopean scale allows for fish tank VR viewing and also places objects at a convenient distance for manipulation, optimizes stereo display parameters and reduces stereo display problems (vergence focus conflict).

	Journal of Vision - Cyclopean Motion Processing Does Not Depend Exclusively Upon Selective Attention, by Becker, ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Cyclopean motion aftereffects were induced under conditions of low, high, and no attentional load.
		Specifically, observers adapted to a moving cyclopean or luminance grating (spatial frequency = 0.5 c/deg; temporal frequency = 2 Hz) while performing a rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) task that was superimposed over the central portion of the motion display.
		Results showed that the duration of the motion aftereffect declined with increasing attentional load, but there was no reliable difference in the rate of decline between cyclopean and luminance motion (under high attentional load, the duration of the cyclopean motion aftereffect was 61% of that obtained under no attentional load).

	AllRefer.com - Cyclopean (Archaeology, General) - Encyclopedia
		The term is derived from Cyclopes, the mythological beings who were supposed to have built walls in this manner.
		The Cyclopean technique involves the use of huge, irregular boulders, carefully fitted together without the use of mortar, thereby creating a massive wall with an uneven face.
		There are many Cyclopean walls in Etruscan and Anatolian architecture.

		The average location in the cyclopean eye of the two disparate retinal sites is biased toward the monocular direction of the higher-contrast image.
		This merger is made possible by a sensory linkage between the two eyes that is facilitated by the anatomical superposition of homologous regions of the two retinae in the visual cortex.
		Attraction and repulsion also occurs with cyclopean targets (Stevenson et al 1991), showing that they are not based simply on positional effects at the monocular level.

	The Cyclopean View
		One of the most amazing properties of human stereo vision is the fusion of the left and right views of a scene into a single cyclopean one.
		And, the cyclopean image has a perspective straightahead, which is different from the two input images (see above).
		The cyclopean view is a view constructed by the coherence-network; it was never taken by any camera.

	Presence: Teleoperators and Virtual Environments - Cyclopean Vision, Size Estimation, and Presence in Orthostereoscopic ...
		Stereo scene capture and generation is an important facet of presence research in that stereoscopic images have been linked to naturalness as a component of reported presence.
		A fourth psychophysical experiment using photographic portraits taken at different distances found a fattening effect with telephoto lenses and a slimming effect with wide-angle lenses.
		We conclude that, where possible, photographic inputs to the visual system should allow it to generate the cyclopean point of view by which we normally see the world.

		The fortification walls at Mycenae and Tiryns have become hallmarks for this culture.
		Most everyone is familiar with the grand late products at Mycenae, the Treasury of Atreus and the Tholos of Clytemnestra, whose vaults are as tall as the diameter of their chambers; the lintel blocks alone are worthy of the name Cyclopean.
		These late examples at Mycenae have obscured the complicated and long history of tholoi, which seem to make their appearance in Messenia, first where the facade of at least one carries a Minoan mason mark.

		It is not always possible to decide the period by the type of construction, as this depended on the material; where stratified rocks could be obtained, horizontal coursing might be adopted; in fact, there are instances in Greece, where a later wall of cyclopean construction has been built over one with horizontal courses.
