    • A Bayesian inference theory of attention: neuroscience and algorithms 

      Chikkerur, Sharat; Serre, Thomas; Poggio, Tomaso (2009-10-03)
      The past four decades of research in visual neuroscience has generated a large and disparate body of literature on the role of attention [Itti et al., 2005]. Although several models have been developed to describe specific ...

    • Attentive processing improves object recognition 

      Chikkerur, Sharat; Poggio, Tomaso; Serre, Thomas (2009-10-02)
      The human visual system can recognize several thousand object categories irrespective of their position and size. This combination of selectivity and invariance is built up gradually across several stages of visual processing. ...

    • Efficient POMDP Forward Search by Predicting the Posterior Belief Distribution 

      Roy, Nicholas; He, Ruijie (2009-09-23)
      Online, forward-search techniques have demonstrated promising results for solving problems in partially observable environments. These techniques depend on the ability to efficiently search and evaluate the set of beliefs ...
