	In this project, I learned an extensive amount of the von Kries coefficient law and, especially, on how to read journals and papers. I learned how to select relevant information from the papers and assemble them into a format that is open to the general public. I also learned how to write in a dense, consise manner, and got extensive experience in citing sources. This was a very enlightening experience, and I hope that I wrote a Wikipedia article that can be useful to someone in the future.

This was a very enlightening experience, and I hope that I wrote a Wikipedia article that can be useful to someone in the future.

			I chose to go quite in-depth with one topic rather than do several brief pages and smaller updates so that I could do the extensive journal survey; in my decision, I was able to read a wide range of papers, which I think is one of the most useful parts of the project.

	This was one of the most extensive parts of the process. I read several books, papers, and journals on or related to the von Kries coefficient law, its history, applications, and arguments for/against it. I sifted through all of the sources to find the ones that I felt would be most relevant to the general population, that added new and useful information, and that would fit in well with the overall vision of the Wikipedia page.

	I chose this project because I thought that this would give me the opportunity to go very in-depth into a topic, become more well-versed in literature reviews, and learn how to write academically to a wide audience. I decided to write on the von Kries coefficient law because I had found the chromatic adaptation section the most interesting in class, and wanted to expand on my knowledge in this part of the class.

	I then decided how to structure the page so that it flowed nicely and looked appealing to the reader. I decided that it would be important and relevant to include the prior history of the law so that people could see how it came about; I also included an equation section so that the reader could visually see what the law was explaining. I also felt that the evaluation and application section was important to include; this is where much of the information from journals and papers showed up. I felt this part was most interesting, because it shows the continual learning process of academia; even if a law has been around and used for more than 100 years, it does not mean that it is flawless; people will have differing opinions based on how they conduct their research and what they choose is relevant.

			= Background =

			You can use subsections if you like.
			Below is an example of a retinotopic map. Or, to be precise, below ''will'' be an example of a retinotopic map once the image is uploaded. To add an image, simply put text like this inside double brackets 'MyFile.jpg \| My figure caption'. When you save this text and click on the link, the wiki will ask you for the figure.
			<br>
			[[File:Example.jpg \| Figure 1]]

			Below is another example of a reinotopic map in a different subject.

			[[File:Example2.jpg \| Figure 2]]

			Once you upload the images, they look like this. Note that you can control many features of the images, like whether to show a thumbnail, and the display resolution.

			== MNI space ==

			MNI is an abbreviation for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montreal_Neurological_Institute Montreal Neurological Institute].

			= Methods =
			== Measuring retinotopic maps ==
			Retinotopic maps were obtained in 5 subjects using Population Receptive Field mapping methods [http://white.stanford.edu/~brian/papers/mri/2007-Dumoulin-NI.pdf Dumoulin and Wandell (2008)]. These data were collected for another [http://www.journalofvision.org/9/8/768/ research project] in the Wandell lab. We re-analyzed the data for this project, as described below.

			=== Subjects ===
			Subjects were 5 healthy volunteers.

			=== MR acquisition ===
			Data were obtained on a GE scanner. Et cetera.

			=== MR Analysis ===
			The MR data was analyzed using [http://white.stanford.edu/newlm/index.php/MrVista mrVista] software tools.

			==== Pre-processing ====
			All data were slice-time corrected, motion corrected, and repeated scans were averaged together to create a single average scan for each subject. Et cetera.

			==== PRF model fits ====
			PRF models were fit with a 2-gaussian model.

			==== MNI space ====
			After a pRF model was solved for each subject, the model was trasnformed into MNI template space. This was done by first aligning the high resolution t1-weighted anatomical scan from each subject to an MNI template. Since the pRF model was coregistered to the t1-anatomical scan, the same alignment matrix could then be applied to the pRF model. <br>
			Once each pRF model was aligned to MNI space, 4 model parameters - x, y, sigma, and r^2 - were averaged across each of the 6 subjects in each voxel.

			Et cetera.


			= Results - What you found =

			== Retinotopic models in native space ==
			Some text. Some analysis. Some figures.

			== Retinotopic models in individual subjects transformed into MNI space ==
			Some text. Some analysis. Some figures.

			== Retinotopic models in group-averaged data on the MNI template brain ==
			Some text. Some analysis. Some figures. Maybe some equations.


			=== Equations===
			If you want to use equations, you can use the same formats that are use on wikipedia. <br>
			''See wikimedia help on [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Displaying_a_formula formulas] for help.'' <br>
			This example of equation use is copied and pasted from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete_Fourier_transform wikipedia's article on the DFT].

			The [[sequence]] of ''N'' [[complex number]]s ''x''<sub>0</sub>, ..., ''x''<sub>''N''−1</sub> is transformed into the sequence of ''N'' complex numbers ''X''<sub>0</sub>, ..., ''X''<sub>''N''−1</sub> by the DFT according to the formula:

			:<math>X_k = \sum_{n=0}^{N-1} x_n e^{-\frac{2 \pi i}{N} k n} \quad \quad k = 0, \dots, N-1</math>

			where i is the imaginary unit and <math>e^{\frac{2 \pi i}{N}}</math> is a primitive N'th [[root of unity]]. (This expression can also be written in terms of a [[DFT matrix]]; when scaled appropriately it becomes a [[unitary matrix]] and the ''X''<sub>''k''</sub> can thus be viewed as coefficients of ''x'' in an [[orthonormal basis]].)

			The transform is sometimes denoted by the symbol <math>\mathcal{F}</math>, as in <math>\mathbf{X} = \mathcal{F} \left \{ \mathbf{x} \right \} </math> or <math>\mathcal{F} \left ( \mathbf{x} \right )</math> or <math>\mathcal{F} \mathbf{x}</math>.

			The '''inverse discrete Fourier transform (IDFT)''' is given by

			:<math>x_n = \frac{1}{N} \sum_{k=0}^{N-1} X_k e^{\frac{2\pi i}{N} k n} \quad \quad n = 0,\dots,N-1.</math>

			== Retinotopic models in group-averaged data projected back into native space ==
			Some text. Some analysis. Some figures.
