Towards Context-Sensitive Visual Attention
In this paper we present a discussion of information processing context and how we believe a visual attention system should be influenced by contextual information. We support this argument with a proof-of-concept design and implementation of a context-sensitive extension to the Itti & Koch model of visual attention as part of an architecture for a cognitive system. Our model demonstrates impro...
متن کاملIntrathalamic mechanisms of visual attention.
The classical model of visual processing emphasizes the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) as the major intermediary between the retina and visual cortex. Yet, anatomical findings inspired Francis Crick to suggest an alternative model in which the thalamic reticular nucleus, which envelops the LGN, acts as the "guardian" of visual cortex by modulating LGN activity. Recent work by McAlonan and col...
متن کاملAn Introduction to “Mechanisms of Visual Attention: ACognitiveNeuroscience Perspective”
Thereis agrowing consensus thatthecomputationof the“internal visual world” does not occur in a purely automatic and obligatory way. Humans process part of the available visual information with priority dependent either on the current task (intention) or the structure of the stimulation. This assignment of priority in visual processing is usually termed “visual attention”. Most of what we curren...
متن کاملNeural mechanisms of selective visual attention.
Selective visual attention describes the tendency of visual processing to be confined largely to stimuli that are relevant to behavior. It is among the most fundamental of cognitive functions, particularly in humans and other primates for whom vision is the dominant sense. We review recent progress in identifying the neural mechanisms of selective visual attention. We discuss evidence from stud...
متن کاملNeural mechanisms of visual selective attention.
Visual selective attention improves our perception and performance by modifying sensory inputs at an early stage of processing. Spatial attention produces the most consistent early modulations of visual processing, which can be observed when attention is voluntarily allocated to locations. These effects of spatial attention are similar when attention is cued in a trial-by-trial, or sustained, f...
