Recent research indicates a direct relationship between low-level color features and visual
attention under natural conditions. However, the design of these studies allows only …

Certain locations attract human gaze in natural visual scenes. Are there measurable
features, which distinguish these locations from others? While there has been extensive …

Studies of covert spatial attention have largely used motion, orientation, and contrast stimuli
as these features are fundamental components of vision. The feature dimension of color is …

Feature-based attentional selection of colour is challenging to investigate due to the
multidimensional nature of colour-space. When attending concurrently to features from …

Much of what we know about human colour perception has come from psychophysical
studies conducted in tightly-controlled laboratory settings. An enduring challenge, however …

It seems obvious to laypeople that neurotypical humans experience color equivalently
across their entire visual field. To some neuroscientists, psychologists, and philosophers …

Color is an important visual feature that informs behavior, and the retinal basis for color
vision has been studied across various vertebrate species. While we know how color …

Paying attention can improve vision in many ways, including some very basic functions such
as contrast discrimination [1, 2], a task that probably reflects very early levels of visual …

Visuo-spatial attention can be directed in a top-down controlled way to search for color
targets and it can be captured by color contrasts, regardless of color identity. Here we tested …

Trichromatic color vision is a fundamental aspect of the visual system shared by humans
and non-human primates. In human observers, color has been shown to facilitate object …
