The authors explored the temporal mechanism of attention deficit in children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). In rapid serial visual presentation tasks in which two targets (T-sub-1 and T-sub-2) were presented in close temporal proximity among distractors, participants tried to identify T-sub-1 and detect T-sub-2 in one (dual-task) experiment and only to detect T-sub-2 in a...

The R2 response on the blink reflex was found to be abnormal in seven out of 17 Huntington's disease descendants. Such abnormalities were present in four untreated subjects and in three further subjects after administration of a single oral dose of levodopa-carbidopa. An increase in latency and differential latency (four cases), or in a single one of these parameters (three cases) were the abno...

EOG is a biosignal which occurs during eye activities such as eye movement and blink. EOG has a linear relationship with gaze distance. Detection object position in 3-dimensional area using gaze motion was proposed in this research. To calculate the distance of gaze motion in pixel unit, affine transform method was developed. The homogeneous matrix from five geometry processes: transformation-1...

Fatigue induced vehicle accidents have seen an increase in the last few decades. Fatigue monitoring using noninvasive and real time image processing and computer vision techniques have shown great promise and are an active research area. To that extent, in the proposed work a blink detection algorithm is proposed that serves as a visual cue that may be correlated to the state of fatigue of the ...

The extent of the attentional blink effect on detection rates in rapid serial visual presentations is modulated by the emotionality of the stimuli. Emotionally salient stimuli are detected more often, even if presented in the attentional blink period, and elicit an enlarged P3 response, which has been interpreted as enhanced consolidation. This effect correlates with individual differences in t...

Despite increasing evidence that shows action video game play improves perceptual and cognitive skills, the mechanisms of transfer are not well-understood. In line with previous work, we suggest that transfer is dependent upon common demands between the game and transfer task. In the current study, participants played one of four action games with varying speed, visual, and attentional demands ...

Minimizing user cognitive load is suggested as an integral part of human-centered design, where a more intuitive, easy to learn and adaptive interface is desired. In this context, it is difficult to develop optimal strategies to improve the design without first knowing how user cognitive load fluctuates during interaction. In this study, we investigate how cognitive load measurement is affected...

After the detection of a target (T1) in a rapid stream of visual stimuli, there is a period of 400-600 msec during which a subsequent target (T2) is missed. This impairment in performance has been labeled the attentional blink. Recent theories propose that the attentional blink reflects a bottleneck in working memory consolidation such that T2 cannot be consolidated until after T1 is consolidat...

When an observer detects a target in a rapid stream of visual stimuli, there is a brief period of time during which the detection of subsequent targets is impaired. In this study, event-related potentials (ERPs) were recorded from normal adult observers to determine whether this "attentional blink" reflects a suppression of perceptual processes or an impairment in postperceptual processes. No s...

<span lang="id">Blink detection is an important technique in a variety of settings, including facial motion analysis and signal processing. However, automatic blink challenging due to its rate. This paper proposes real-time method for detecting eye blinks video series. The based on landmark trained real-world datasets demonstrates robustness against various environmental factors, lighting...
