Chia-Huei Tseng - Perceptual grouping in visual search

Abstract:
The practical and theoretical importance of how attention guides visual search has attracted psychologists for decades, yet we are still far from having a complete picture. One of the unanswered questions is how attention is directed by the relation between parts of a scene (perceptual grouping).

James Bisley - The role of the parietal priority map in guiding visual attention
02/05 - 01:25am — AnonymousDr. James Bisley, UCLA
Abstract:
Visual attention is the mechanism the nervous system uses to highlight specific locations, objects or features within the visual field. This can be accomplished by making an eye movement to bring the object onto the fovea (overt attention) or by increased processing of visual information in more peripheral regions of the visual field (covert attention). We have hypothesized that neurons within the lateral intraparietal area (LIP) of posterior parietal cortex create a priority

Jonathan Vaughan - Movement execution in 3-D workspaces: Movement representation, obstacle avoidance, and hand dominance
01/10 - 04:29pm — AnonymousJonathan Vaughan (Hamilton College).
Abstract:
Performing everyday actions like reaching, using tools, and reaching around obstacles are performed with apparently unconscious ease despite their complexity, but analysis of these actions reveals remarkable consistencies and invariances. The timing and trajectories of reaching to touch targets while avoiding intervening obstacles show simple relationships to the underlying task demands, and so may give insights into questions about the nature of representation and computation on which the movements depend.
