Common priority map for selection history, reward and emotion in the oculomotor system

AV Belopolsky - Perception, 2015 - journals.sagepub.com
In natural scenes, many objects compete for visual selection. However, it is not always clear
why certain objects win this competition. I will demonstrate that the eye movement system …

Saccadic trajectories deviate toward or away from optimally informative visual features

S Castellotti, M Szinte, MM Del Viva, A Montagnini - Iscience, 2023 - cell.com
The saccades' path is influenced by visual distractors, making their trajectory curve away or
toward them. Previous research suggested that the more salient the distractor, the more …

A dynamic neural field model of continuous input integration

W Wojtak, S Coombes, D Avitabile, E Bicho… - Biological …, 2021 - Springer
The ability of neural systems to turn transient inputs into persistent changes in activity is
thought to be a fundamental requirement for higher cognitive functions. In continuous …

A spiking neural network model of the midbrain superior colliculus that generates saccadic motor commands

B Kasap, AJ van Opstal - Biological Cybernetics, 2017 - Springer
Single-unit recordings suggest that the midbrain superior colliculus (SC) acts as an optimal
controller for saccadic gaze shifts. The SC is proposed to be the site within the visuomotor …

[HTML][HTML] A fresh look at saccadic trajectories and task irrelevant stimuli: Social relevance matters

KEW Laidlaw, TA Badiudeen, MJH Zhu, A Kingstone - Vision Research, 2015 - Elsevier
A distractor placed nearby a saccade target will cause interference during saccade planning
and execution, and as a result will cause the saccade's trajectory to curve in a systematic …

Distractor evoked deviations of saccade trajectory are modulated by fixation activity in the superior colliculus: computational and behavioral evidence

Z Wang, J Theeuwes - PLoS One, 2014 - journals.plos.org
Previous studies have shown that saccades may deviate towards or away from task
irrelevant visual distractors. This observation has been attributed to active suppression …

Eye movements are primed toward the center of multiple stimuli even when the interstimulus distances are too large to generate saccade averaging

J Christie, MD Hilchey, R Mishra, RM Klein - Experimental brain research, 2015 - Springer
Prior oculomotor research has established that saccades tend to land near the center of
multiple saccade targets when they are near each other. This saccade averaging …

Distractor-induced saccade trajectory curvature reveals visual contralateral bias with respect to the dominant eye

R Chaumillon, N Alahyane, P Senot… - Scientific Reports, 2022 - nature.com
The functional consequences of the visual system lateralization referred to as “eye
dominance” remain poorly understood. We previously reported shorter hand reaction times …

Test of a dynamic neural field model: spatial working memory is biased away from distractors

AR Schutte, GJ DeGirolamo - Psychological research, 2020 - Springer
Attention facilitates the encoding (eg, Awh, Anllo-Vento, & Hillyard, J Cognit Neurosci 12 (5),
840–847, 2000) and maintenance of locations in spatial working memory (Awh, Vogel, & Oh …

The Priority Map

D Buehler - Australasian Journal of Philosophy, 2024 - Taylor & Francis
How can we argue, from neural facts, that representational states exhibit some specific
representational structure? This paper approaches the question through a case study on the …
