Attentional Control of Visual Perception: Cortical and Subcortical Mechanisms
Abstract
Given the properties of muscles (and the laws of physics), it is obviously not possible to direct the eyes or move an arm to more than one object at a time. What may not be so obvious is that neither is it possible to fully process or store in memory more than one or two visual stimuli in a single moment. In this sense, memory and muscles are very much alike. Thus, neurobiologists working in both sensory and motor systems must confront the problem of selective attention, i.e., how the brain selects which of the many images typically stimulating the retina will be the target for an eye movement or will have access to memory at a given moment. It is an interesting question whether these attentional mechanisms are the same mechanisms for both sensory and motor systems, and we address this later in this paper.

Neurons in the pulvinar contribute to top-down suppression of distractors.
“Neurons in the pulvinar exhibit features of selective attention; as they respond more strongly to behaviourally relevant stimuli than to unattended stimuli [48], as such, they contribute to top-down suppression of distractors [49].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
