The Biophysics of Visual Edge Detection: A Review of Basic Principles

Abstract: The mathematization of nature is an age-old concept. The Greeks sought harmony in the celestial spheres. The Arab geometers constructed a spherical geometry of the heavens. Later, Galileo Galilei arithmetized kinematics. As the centuries advanced, polymaths like the Dutchman Christiaan Huygens applied more advanced mathematics in order to understand natural phenomena. It was not until the turn of the twentieth century that a more comprehensive mathematical approach to understanding biological phenomena was sou… Show more
