Voluntary visual attention and phenomenal line length.
In 1956, Fraisse, et al. reported subjects judged that lines were longer when voluntary attention was focused on the lines than when attention was distracted from the lines. In the many attempts to repeat these results, none has ascertained whether attention on reported line length was a phenomenal effect. In the present study, 46 subjects were shown as stimuli pairs of horizontal or vertical b...
متن کاملPhenomenal consciousness, attention and accessibility
This article re-examines Ned Block‘s (1997, 2007) conceptual distinction between phenomenal consciousness and access consciousness. His argument that we can have phenomenally conscious representations without being able to cognitively access them is criticized as not being supported by evidence. Instead, an alternative interpretation of the relevant empirical data is offered which leaves the li...
متن کاملSeparate neural definitions of visual consciousness and visual attention; a case for phenomenal awareness
What is the relation between visual attention and visual awareness? It is difficult to imagine being aware of something without attending to it, and by some, visual consciousness is simply equated to what is in the focus of attention. However, findings from psychological as well as from neurophysiological experiments argue strongly against equating attention and visual consciousness. From these...
متن کاملVisual Segmentation of Simple Objects for Robots
The ability to automatically segment a “simple” object of any size from its background is important for an active agent (e.g. a robot) to interact effectively in the real world. Recently, we proposed an algorithm [12] to segment a “simple” object in a scale invariant manner, given a point anywhere inside that object. However, in [12], a strategy to select the point inside a “simple” object was ...
متن کاملImage Segmentation Based on Visual Attention Mechanism
A new approach for image segmentation based on visual attention mechanism is proposed. Motivated biologically, this approach simulates the bottom-up human visual selective attention mechanism, extracts early vision features of the image and constructs the saliency map. Multiple image features such as intensity, color and orientation in multiple scales are extracted to get some feature maps. The...
