Revisiting the Route Choice Problem: A Modeling Framework Based on Mental Representations

Michel Bierlaire, Gunnar Flötteröd, Evanthia Kazagli

We present a new approach for modeling and analyzing route choice behavior. It is motivated by the need to reduce the complexity of the state-of-the-art choice models. It is inspired by the simplifications done by the travelers, using representations of th ...

Lasting Impact of Regret and Gratification on Resting Brain Activity and Its Relation to Depressive Traits

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

Obtaining lower gains than rejected alternatives during decision making evokes feelings of regret, whereas higher gains elicit gratification. Although decision-related emotions produce lingering effects on mental state, neuroscience research has generally ...

A direct comparison of unconscious face processing under masking and interocular suppression

Nathan Quentin Faivre, Julien Dubois

Different combinations of forward and backward masking as well as interocular suppression have been used extensively to render stimuli invisible and to study those aspects of visual stimuli that are processed in the absence of conscious experience. Althoug ...

Fine-Grained Emotion Recognition in Olympic Tweets Based on Human Computation

Pearl Pu Faltings, Claudiu-Cristian Musat, Valentina Sintsova

In this paper, we detail a method for domain specific, multi-category emotion recognition, based on human computation. We create an Amazon Mechanical Turk1 task that elicits emotion labels and phrase-emotion associations from the participants. Using the pr ...

Body Context and Posture Affect Mental Imagery of Hands

Olaf Blanke, Bogdan Draganski, Silvio Ionta

Different visual stimuli have been shown to recruit different mental imagery strategies. However the role of specific visual stimuli properties related to body context and posture in mental imagery is still under debate. Aiming to dissociate the behavioura ...

I feel who I see: visual body identity affects visual-tactile integration in peripersonal space

Olaf Blanke, Roy Salomon, Jane Aspell, Michiel van Elk

Recent studies have shown the importance of integrating multisensory information in the body representation for constituting self-consciousness. However, one idea that has received only scant attention is that our body representation is also constituted by ...

Context-Aware Brain-Computer Interfaces

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Ricardo Andres Chavarriaga Lozano

Systems using brain-generated signals can control complex, smart devices by taking into account information about the situation at hand, as well as the operator’s cognitive state. ...

Subjective mental time: the functional architecture of projecting the self to past and future

Olaf Blanke, Silvio Ionta

Human experience takes place in the line of mental time (MT) created through 'self-projection' of oneself to different time-points in the past or future. Here we manipulated self-projection in MT not only with respect to one's life events but also with res ...

Control of Attention to Mental States and Multiple Critics

Arash Arami

Attentional modulation is needed when a decision maker is faced with too much information to process. In this paper we discuss the use of attention in control applications where usually higher order system dynamics are involved as typical benchmarks consid ...

How the mind constitutes itself through perceptual learning

Michael Herzog

Most theories of perception assume a rigid relationship between objects of the physical world and the corresponding mental representations. We show by a priori reasoning that this assumption is not fulfilled. We claim instead that all object-representation ...
