Feature-based attention in visual cortex

摘要: Although most studies of visual attention have examined the effects shifting between different locations in field, can also be directed to particular features, such as a color, orientation or direction motion. Single-unit shown that feature modulates neuronal signals range areas monkey cortex. The location-independent property feature-based makes it particularly well suited modify selectively neural representations stimuli parts within complex scenes match currently attended feature.
