Alfred L. Yarbus was among the first to demonstrate that eye movements actively serve our
perceptual and cognitive goals, a crucial recognition that is at the heart of today's research …

Our vision depends upon shifting our high-resolution fovea to objects of interest in the visual
field. Each saccade displaces the image on the retina, which should produce a chaotic …

High-acuity foveal processing is vital for human vision. Nonetheless, little is known about
how the preparation of large-scale rapid eye movements (saccades) affects visual sensitivity …

The way the cognitive system scans the visual environment for relevant information–visual
search in short–has been a long-standing central topic in vision science. From its inception …

Visual neurons typically receive information from a limited portion of the retina, and such
receptive fields are a key organizing principle for much of visual cortex. At the same time …

Saccadic eye movements cause frequent and substantial displacements of the retinal
image, but those displacements go unnoticed. It has been widely assumed that this …

Visual perception is most often studied as a “passive” process in which an observer fixates
steadily at point in space so that stimuli can be delivered to the system with spatial precision …

We introduce a large-scale neurocomputational model of spatial cognition called'Spacecog',
which integrates recent findings from mechanistic models of visual and spatial perception …

People's eyes are directed at objects of interest with the aim of acquiring visual information.
However, processing this information is constrained in capacity, requiring task-driven and …

During natural vision, saccadic eye movements lead to frequent retinal image changes that
result in different neuronal subpopulations representing the same visual feature across …
