Author Correction: Simulation of visual acuity by personalizable neuro-physiological model of the human eye.

abstract：:Adherence to norms and interventions to norm violations are two important forms of social behaviour modelled in economic games. While both appear to serve a prosocial function, they may represent separate mechanisms corresponding with distinct emotional and psychological antecedents, and thus may be predicted by diffe...
