the right place at the right time. Two or three times every second, we must decide both when …

Eye movements were recorded while participants viewed line-drawing pictures of natural
scenes in preparation for a memory test (Experiment 1) or to find a target object (Experiment …

We recorded over 90,000 saccades while observers viewed a diverse collection of natural
images and measured low level visual features at fixation. The features that discriminated …

Visual cognition depends critically on the moment-to-moment orientation of gaze. To change
the gaze to a new location in space, that location must be computed and used by the …

What distinguishes the locations that we fixate from those that we do not? To answer this

time from multiple eye fixations. The study of eye movement patterns during scene viewing …

We assessed the role of saliency in driving observers to fixate the eyes in social scenes.
Saliency maps (Itti & Koch, 2000) were computed for the scenes from three previous studies …

The recent study of overt attention during complex scene viewing has emphasized
explaining gaze behavior in terms of image properties and image salience independently of …

Eye-movement control during scene viewing can be represented as a series of individual
decisions about where and when to move the eyes. While substantial behavioral and …

Visual search is a fundamental and routine task of everyday life. Studying visual search
promises to shed light on the basic attentional mechanisms that facilitate visual processing …
