沙龙摘要：

Since neural resources are severely limited, the efficient processing of visual information requires selecting only a very small fraction of visual inputs at any given moment in time. Attention is the main mechanism that controls this selection process, namely selective attention. Selective attention is the mechanism by which the subset of incoming information is preferentially processed from the complex external environment. Research on selective attention has two key issues: one is what targets (inputs) are selected by attention. There are three different types of selective attention according to its selected target: spatial, feature-based, and object-based attention; another one is how selective attention generates. There are two different types of selective attention according to its generation source: top-down and bottom-up attention. In this talk, these issues are introduced systematically to explore the neural mechanisms of visual selective attention.
