Developing a Detailed Integrated Optics Computational Model Capable of Quantitative Descriptions and Predictions of the Image Analysis Performance of Compound Eyes

Abstract

This report results from a contract tasking University of Groningen as follows: The contractor will develop a detailed, configurable, digital computational model of the arthropod compound eye that is capable of providing a quantitative, numerical description of various steps of the signal processing pathway. The resulting model will be capable of modeling optical phenomena observed and measured in the insect compound eye. Previously published data and experiments conducted under this construct will be used in model development and validation.
