Neural Mechanisms of Selective Visual Attention

TL;DR: The two basic phenomena that define the problem of visual attention can be illustrated in a simple example and selectivity-the ability to filter out un­ wanted information is illustrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Visual search and stimulus similarity.

TL;DR: A new theory of search and visual attention is presented, which accounts for harmful effects of nontargets resembling any possible target, the importance of local nontarget grouping, and many other findings.
Journal ArticleDOI

GW170104: Observation of a 50-Solar-Mass Binary Black Hole Coalescence at Redshift 0.2

B. P. Abbott, +1065 more
TL;DR: The magnitude of modifications to the gravitational-wave dispersion relation is constrain, the graviton mass is bound to m_{g}≤7.7×10^{-23} eV/c^{2} and null tests of general relativity are performed, finding that GW170104 is consistent with general relativity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common regions of the human frontal lobe recruited by diverse cognitive demands.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed patterns of frontal-lobe activation associated with a broad range of different cognitive demands, including aspects of perception, response selection, executive control, working memory, episodic memory and problem solving.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective attention and the organization of visual information.

TL;DR: The authors showed that two judgments that concern the same object can be made simultaneously without loss of accuracy, whereas two judgment that concern different objects cannot, neither the similarity nor the difficulty of required discriminations, nor the spatial distribution of information, could account for the results.
