Seminar "Psychophysics and Signal Detection", Summer Term 2024
The seminar will take place as the block seminar on the Kaiserslautern campus on the following weekends:
July 13: 10:00-15:00, R. 57-315
July 14: 10:00-15:00, R. 57-315
July 20: 10:00-15:00, R. 57-315
July 21: 10:00-15:00, R. 57-315
The seminar will procede in sections of two hours, separated by a lunch break. It will be a mixture of hands-on training and student talks. The focus will be on simple, instructive models that can serve as "intuition pumps" for many applied problems. Detailed planning of the seminar can only take place once we know how many people will register. Further details and the assignment of papers will be announced in time.
