For example, teeth on one side of the jaw can be numbed by injecting the mandibular nerve. Occasionally, injury or disease processes may affect two (or all three) branches of the trigeminal nerve; in these cases, the involved branches may be termed: V1/V2 distribution – Referring to the ophthalmic and maxillary branches
Visual area V2, or secondary visual cortex, also called prestriate cortex, [31] receives strong feedforward connections from V1 (direct and via the pulvinar) and sends robust connections to V3, V4, and V5. Additionally, it plays a crucial role in the integration and processing of visual information.
V2 serves much the same function as V1, however, it also handles illusory contours, determining depth by comparing left and right pulses (2D images), and foreground distinguishment. V2 connects to V1 - V5. V3 helps process 'global motion' (direction and speed) of objects. V3 connects to V1 (weak), V2, and the inferior temporal cortex. [14] [15]
Converging evidence of this type is supportive of a module for motion processing. However, this view is likely to be incomplete: other areas are involved with motion perception, including V1, [7] [8] [9] V2 and V3a [10] and areas surrounding V5/hMT+ (Table 2).
The ophthalmic nerve (CN V 1) is a sensory nerve of the head.It is one of three divisions of the trigeminal nerve (CN V), a cranial nerve.It has three major branches which provide sensory innervation to the eye, and the skin of the upper face and anterior scalp, as well as other structures of the head.
For example, recent studies have shown that the V4 area is responsible for color perception in humans, and the V8 (VO1) area is responsible for shape perception, while the VO2 area, which is located between these regions and the parahippocampal cortex, integrates information about the color and shape of stimuli into a holistic image.
If V is a vector space over a field K, a subset W of V is a linear subspace of V if it is a vector space over K for the operations of V.Equivalently, a linear subspace of V is a nonempty subset W such that, whenever w 1, w 2 are elements of W and α, β are elements of K, it follows that αw 1 + βw 2 is in W.
In printed mathematics, the norm is to set variables and constants in an italic typeface. [20] For example, a general quadratic function is conventionally written as ax 2 + bx + c, where a, b and c are parameters (also called constants, because they are constant functions), while x is the variable of the function.
