Neurophysiology: Neural fingerprints of visual attention
Pronounced effects of attention have been demonstrated in a region of visual cortex previously thought to be devoid of such influences; identifying the features critical for eliciting these effects should teach us a great deal about the neural underpinnings of visual attention.
متن کاملA neural theory of visual attention: bridging cognition and neurophysiology.
A neural theory of visual attention (NTVA) is presented. NTVA is a neural interpretation of C. Bundesen's (1990) theory of visual attention (TVA). In NTVA, visual processing capacity is distributed across stimuli by dynamic remapping of receptive fields of cortical cells such that more processing resources (cells) are devoted to behaviorally important objects than to less important ones. By use...
متن کاملVisual attention: Neurophysiology, psychophysics and cognitive neuroscience
The appeal of visual attention and the attraction towards its study might be related to the unsettling observation, for a traditional vision scientist, that changing an observer’s internal attentional state while keeping the retinal image unchanged can have such dramatic effects on ‘sensory’ neurons throughout visual cortex and on perceptual performance. Adding to the appeal is the tantalizing ...
متن کاملEditorial: Theories of visual attention—linking cognition, neuropsychology, and neurophysiology
The Neural Theory of Visual Attention of Bundesen et al. (2005) was proposed as a neural interpretation of Bundesen's (1990) theory of visual attention (TVA). In NTVA, visual attention operates via two mechanisms: by dynamic remapping of receptive fields of cortical cells such that more cells are devoted to behaviorally important objects than to less important ones (filtering) and by multiplica...
متن کاملNeural basis of visual selective attention.
Attentional modulation along the object-recognition pathway of the cortical visual system of primates has been shown to consist of enhanced representation of the retinal input at a specific location in space, or of objects located anywhere in the visual field which possess a critical object feature. Moreover, selective attention mechanisms allow the visual system to resolve competition among mu...
