Feature-based attentional weighting and spreading in visual working memory
Attention can be directed at features and feature dimensions to facilitate perception. Here, we investigated whether feature-based-attention (FBA) can also dynamically weight feature-specific representations within multi-feature objects held in visual working memory (VWM). Across three experiments, participants retained coloured arrows in working memory and, during the delay, were cued to eithe...
متن کاملUnconscious pop - out : attentional capture by unseen feature singletons only when top - down attention is available
Visual “pop-out” occurs when a unique visual target (e.g. a feature singleton) is present among a set of homogeneous distractors. However, the role of visual awareness in this process remains unclear. Here we show that, even though subjects were not aware of a suppressed pop-out display, their subsequent performance on an orientation discrimination task was significantly better at the pop-out l...
متن کاملFeature Selection by Joint Graph Sparse Coding
This paper takes manifold learning and regression simultaneously into account to perform unsupervised spectral feature selection. We first extract the bases of the data, and then represent the data sparsely using the extracted bases by proposing a novel joint graph sparse coding model, JGSC for short. We design a new algorithm TOSC to compute the resulting objective function of JGSC, and then t...
متن کاملTop-Down Predictive Linking and Complex-Feature-Based Formalisms
Automatic compilation of the linking relation employed in certain parsing algorithms for context-free languages is examined. Special problems arise in the extension of these algorithms to the possibly infinite domain of feature structures. A technique is proposed which is designed specifically for left-recursive categories and is based on the generalization of their occurrences in a derivation....
متن کاملFeature Sharing between Object Detection and Top-down Attention
Visual search and other attentionally demanding processes are guided from the top down when a specific task is given (e.g., Wolfe et al. 2004). In the simplified stimuli commonly used in visual search experiments, e.g., red and horizontal bars, the selection of potential features that might be biased for is obvious (by design). In a natural setting with real-world objects, the selection of thes...
