While originally designed for natural language processing tasks, the self-attention
mechanism has recently taken various computer vision areas by storm. However, the 2D …

It has long been understood that the ventral visual stream of the human brain processes
features of simulated human faces. Recently, specificity for real and interactive faces has …

The human visual system uses two parallel pathways for spatial processing and object
recognition. In contrast, computer vision systems tend to use a single feedforward pathway …

Priority map theory is a leading framework for understanding how various aspects of
stimulus displays and task demands guide visual attention. Per this theory, the visual system …

Salience-driven exogenous and goal-driven endogenous attentional selection are two
distinct forms of attention that guide selection of task-irrelevant and task-relevant targets in …

In the process of image understanding, the human visual system (HVS) performs multiscale
analysis on various objects. HVS primarily focuses on marginally conspicuous image …

Typically, searching for a target among uniformly tilted non-targets is easier when this target
is perpendicular, rather than parallel, to the non-targets. The V1 Saliency Hypothesis (V1SH) …

The posterior parietal cortex (PPC) of squirrel monkeys contains subregions where long
trains of intracortical microstimulation evoke complex, behaviorally meaningful movements …

Movements towards touch on the body require integrating tactile location and body posture
information. Tactile processing and movement planning both rely on posterior parietal cortex …

Finding an object amongst a cluttered visual scene is an everyday task for humans but
presents a fundamental challenge to computational models performing this feat. Previous …
