Attention Modifies Spatial Resolution According to Task Demands.
How does visual attention affect spatial resolution? In texture-segmentation tasks, exogenous (involuntary) attention automatically increases resolution at the attended location, which improves performance where resolution is too low (at the periphery) but impairs performance where resolution is already too high (at central locations). Conversely, endogenous (voluntary) attention improves perfo...
متن کاملHow low can you go? Changing the resolution of novel complex objects in visual working memory according to task demands
In three experiments we manipulated the resolution of novel complex objects in visual working memory (WM) by changing task demands. Previous studies that investigated the trade-off between quantity and resolution in visual WM yielded mixed results for simple familiar stimuli. We used the contralateral delay activity as an electrophysiological marker to directly track the deployment of visual WM...
متن کاملHow Attention Affects Spatial Resolution.
We summarize and discuss a series of psychophysical studies on the effects of spatial covert attention on spatial resolution, our ability to discriminate fine patterns. Heightened resolution is beneficial in most, but not all, visual tasks. We show how endogenous attention (voluntary, goal driven) and exogenous attention (involuntary, stimulus driven) affect performance on a variety of tasks me...
متن کاملAccuracy of Digital Elevation Model According to Spatial Resolution
There are many kinds of DEM (Digital Elevation Model) generation methods such as a stereomatching from aerial photograph or satellite image, an interferometry from SAR data and an interpolation of topographic maps. On the other hand, we can use some accomplished DEMs. For example, NGDC NOAA offers global land one-km base elevation (GLOBE). And USGS offers Digital Chart of the World that has ele...
متن کاملThe spatial resolution of visual attention.
Two tasks were used to evaluate the grain of visual attention, the minimum spacing at which attention can select individual items. First, observers performed a tracking task at many viewing distances. When the display subtended less than 1 degrees in size, tracking was no longer possible even though observers could resolve the items and their motions: The items were visible but could not be ind...
