This chapter reviews evidence supporting the claim that the covert attention system plays an
important role in guiding overt orienting based on eye movements. The most heavily …

Most studies of visual attention have used indirect manual reaction time measures to make
inferences about where processing priority is allocated in the scene. Eye tracking offers an …

A biologically motivated computational model of bottom-up visual selective attention was
used to examine the degree to which stimulus salience guides the allocation of attention …
