Abstract This paper describes Guided Search 6.0 (GS6), a revised model of visual search.
When we encounter a scene, we can see something everywhere. However, we cannot …

In visual search tasks, observers look for targets among distractors. In the lab, this often
takes the form of multiple searches for a simple shape that may or may not be present …

Modeling visual attention-particularly stimulus-driven, saliency-based attention-has been a
very active research area over the past 25 years. Many different models of attention are now …

Eye movements are now widely used to investigate cognitive processes during reading,
scene perception, and visual search. In this article, research on the following topics is …

What is attention? How does attention shape consciousness? In an approach that engages
with foundational topics in the philosophy of mind, the theory of action, psychology, and the …

Miller (1956) summarized evidence that people can remember about seven chunks in short-
term memory (STM) tasks. However, that number was meant more as a rough estimate and …

Five important trends have emerged from recent work on computational models of focal
visual attention that emphasize the bottom-up, image-based control of attentional …

Attention is a core property of all perceptual and cognitive operations. Given limited capacity
to process competing options, attentional mechanisms select, modulate, and sustain focus …

Most models of visual search, whether involving overt eye movements or covert shifts of
attention, are based on the concept of a saliency map, that is, an explicit two-dimensional …

Working memory (WM) enables temporary storage and manipulation of information, 1
supporting tasks that require bridging between perception and subsequent behavior. Its …
