When do you look where you look? A visual field asymmetry
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pre-saccadic fixation durations associated with saccades directed in different directions were compared in three endogenous-attention oriented saccadic scanning tasks (i.e. visual search and scene viewing). Pre-saccadic fixation durations were consistently briefer before the execution of upward saccades, than downward saccades. Saccades also had a higher probability of being directed upwards than downwards. Pre-saccadic fixation durations were symmetric and longer for horizontally-directed saccades. The vertical visual field asymmetry in pre-saccadic fixation durations reflects an influence of factors not directly related to currently fixated elements. The ability to predict pre-saccadic fixation durations is important for computational modelling of real-time saccadic scanning, and the findings make a case for including directional constraints in computational modelling of when the eyes move.

Address matching (also called geocoding) is an applied spatial analysis which is frequently used in everyday life. Almost all desktop and web-based GIS environments are equipped with a module to match the addresses expressed in pre-defined standard formats on the map. It is an essential prerequisite for many of the functionalities provided by location-based services (e.g. car navigation). Sever...
