  1. 21. Visual Attention to Faces, Eyes and Objects : Studies of Typically and Atypically Developing Children

    Author : Johan L. Kleberg; Terje Falck-Ytter; Gustaf Gredebäck; Elsabbagh Mayada; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Attention; Eye Tracking; Pupil Dilation; Arousal; Social Attention; Gap Overlap; Autism; Social Anxiety Disorder; Infants; Phasic Alerting; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Abstract : Abstract. The overall aim of this doctoral work is to understand attentional functions in typically developing infants, and in children with two psychiatric conditions: autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and social anxiety disorder (SAD). Previous research has shown that attention can be subdivided into a number of interacting functions. READ MORE

  2. 22. Enhancement of Salient Image Regions for Visual Object Detection

    Author : Keren Fu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; geodesic distance; graph spectral decomposition; video processing; visual attention; color contrast and distribution; propagation; salient region; figure-ground segmentation;

    Abstract : Salient object/region detection aims at finding interesting regions in images and videos, since such regions contain important information and easily attract human attention. The detected regions can be further used for more complicated computer vision applications such as object detection and recognition, image compression, content-based image editing, and image retrieval.

    Abstract : DEGREE OF LICENTIATE IN PSYCHOLOGY Abstract Viken, J. I. (2011). The importance of lateralized and nonlateralized sub-symptoms of visuospatial neglect as predictors of functional dependency after stroke. READ MORE

  4. 24. Drivers’ response to attentional demand in automated driving

    Author : Alberto Morando; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; vehicle automation; naturalistic data; human factors.; driving simulator data; visual behavior; response process; Attention;

    Abstract : Vehicle automation can make driving safer; it can compensate for human impairments that are recognized as the leading cause of crashes. Vehicle automation has become a central topic in transportation and human factors research. READ MORE

  5. 25. From Eye to Mind : Early Visuomotor Performance and Developmental Trajectories in Children Born Preterm

    Author : Ylva Fredriksson Kaul; Lena Hellström-Westas; Claes von Hofsten; Kerstin Rosander; Katarina Strand Brodd; Birgitta Böhm; Audrey van der Meer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Children born very preterm; Visual tracking; Reaching; Neurodevelopment; Predictive control; Attention; Cognition; Psychology; Psykologi; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Abstract : Children born very preterm, at less than 32 weeks of gestation, have an increased risk of developing problems with attention, cognition, perception and motor function. Despite this, the developmental trajectories leading from preterm birth to later impairments are not fully understood. READ MORE
