A visual system not only needs to recognize a stimulus, it also needs to find the location of the stimulus. In this paper, we present a neural network model that is able to generalize its ability to identify objects to new locations in its visual field. The model consists of a feedforward network for object identification and a feedback network for object location. The feedforward network first...

This unit is designed to provide sufficient instruction for the setup and execution of tests for object location and object recognition in adult mice. This task is ideally suited for the study of a variety of mouse models that examine disease mechanisms and novel therapeutic targets. By altering several key parameters, the experimenter can investigate short-term or long-term memory and look for...

Research has shown that there are at least two kinds of visual selective attention: location based and object based. In the present study, we sought to determine the locus of spatially invariant object-based selection using a dual-task paradigm. In four experiments, observers performed an attention task (object feature report or visual search) with a concurrent memory task (object memory or spa...
