We present a view of the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) as a sensorimotor interface for
visually guided movements. Special attention is given to the role of the PPC in arm …

Conscious perception of the visual world depends on neural activity at all levels of the visual
system from the retina to regions of parietal and frontal cortex. Neurons in early visual areas …

In 7 experiments, the authors explored whether visual attention (the ability to select relevant
visual information) and visual working memory (the ability to retain relevant visual …

A fundamental task of vision is to group the image elements that belong to one object and to
segregate them from other objects and the background. This review provides a conceptual …

A central goal of cognitive neuroscience is to elucidate the neural mechanisms underlying
decision-making. Recent physiological studies suggest that neurons in association areas …

Object detection and recognition is a topic of significant interest in computer and robot
vision. It is required in most applications of computational vision, for example, biometric …

The orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) is thought to participate in making and evaluating goal-
directed decisions. In rodents, spatial navigation is a major mode of goal-directed behavior …

Allocation of attentional resources to portions of the available sensory input can be
regulated by bottom–up processes, ie, spontaneous orientation towards an oncoming …

What are the visual causes, rather than mere correlates, of attentional selection and how do
they compare to each other during natural vision? To address these questions, we first …

Human cognition is unique in the way in which it relies on combinatorial (or compositional)
structures. Language provides ample evidence for the existence of combinatorial structures …
