Most visual search models rely on a retinotopic saliency map. Here, we provide evidence that visual saliency is computed non-retinotopically. Recently, it was shown that attention can operate in a non-retinotopic reference frame by inserting a search displ ...
A variety of aftereffects was found to be processed non-retinotopically. Other studies failed to find non-retinotopic aftereffects. These experiments relied on paradigms involving eye movements. We have developed a paradigm, based on the Ternus–Pikler displ ...
Attention is crucial for visual perception because it allows the visual system to effectively use its limited resources by selecting behaviorally and cognitively relevant stimuli from the large amount of information impinging on the eyes. Reflexive, stimul ...
In binocular rivalry, only one image is perceived consciously when different, incompatible images are presented to the left and right eye, respectively. The other image is suppressed. Binocular suppression is generally assumed to occur within retinotopic c ...

Recent studies have shown that a variety of aftereffects occurs in a non-retinotopic frame of reference. These findings have been taken as strong evidence that remapping of visual information occurs in a hierarchic manner in the human cortex with an increa ...

At every moment, the image the world projects on our eyes undergoes rapid and dramatic changes due to the eye movements and to the motion of the objects. Surprisingly, we are not aware of these changes, experiencing the world as stable and constant. This a ...
In human vision, the optics of the eye map neighboring points of the environment onto neighboring photoreceptors in the retina. This retinotopic encoding principle is preserved in the early visual areas. Under normal viewing conditions, due to the motion o ...
