Neuronal Basis of Covert Spatial Attention in the Frontal Eye Field (2005, background): “Evidence suggests that the spatially selective activity observed in FEF visual responses functions as a visual salience map that identifies potential targets for eye movements ( Thompson and Bichot , 2005 ) but is not an explicit saccade plan .”
Attention, learning and the value of information (2012, background): “Experiments that manipulate the salience or relevance of visual cues show that target selection cells respond very selectively to stimuli that are likely to be attended, either because of their physical salience or behavioral relevance (Gottlieb et al., 1998; Thompson and Bichot, 2005).”
Ultra-rapid object detection with saccadic eye movements: visual processing speed revisited. (2006, background): “Converging evidence from electro - physiology ( Thompson & Bichot , 2005 ) and TMS ( Juan et al .”
Integration of Visuospatial and Effector Information during Symbolically Cued Limb Movements in Monkey Lateral Intraparietal Area (2006, background): “Two areas with which the LIP is interconnected strongly, the frontal eye field (FEF) and the superior colliculus (SC), are thought to play similar roles in attention (Cavanaugh and Wurtz, 2004; Thompson and Bichot, 2005).”
Visual search: a retrospective. (2011, background): “Inactivation of each of these areas will result in behavioral deﬁcits (Lovejoy & Krauzlis, 2010; FEF: Monosov & Thompson, 2009; LIP: Balan & Gottlieb, 2009).”
Eye guidance in natural vision: Reinterpreting salience (2011, unknown): “The neural implementations of such a priority map include the superior colliculus (McPeek & Keller, 2002), pulvinar (Robinson & Petersen, 1992), V1 (Li, 2002), V4 (Mazer & Gallant, 2003), LIP (Gottlieb, Kusunoki, & Goldberg, 1998), and the frontal eye field (Thompson & Bichot, 2005).”
Guided Search 4.0: Current Progress With a Model of Visual Search (2007, background): “Attention is deployed to the locus of the next saccade before it is made (Kowler, Anderson, Dosher, & Blaser, 1995) and guidance mechanisms influence the selection of eye movement targets (Shen, Reingold, & Pomplun, 2003); (Thompson & Bichot, 2004); (Motter & Belky, 1998); (Bichot & Schall, 1999).”
Intracranial Recordings Demonstrate Both Cortical and Medial Temporal Lobe Engagement in Visual Search in Humans (2021, background): “It should be noted that salience maps have been observed in several cortical areas beyond V1, including: area V4 in the occipital lobe (Burrows & Moore, 2009), area LIP in the parietal cortex (Gottlieb et al., 1998), and the FEF in the frontal lobe (Thompson & Bichot, 2005).”
Functional Specialization in the Attention Network (2019, background): “…maps has been found in multiple nodes of the attention network, including frontal cortices (Serences & Yantis 2007, Sprague & Serences 2013, Thompson & Bichot 2005) and parietal cortices (Bisley & Goldberg 2010, Gottlieb et al. 1998, Serences & Yantis 2007, Sprague & Serences 2013), but…”
