Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cognition
  • Artificial intelligence
  • Perception

Shaun P. Vecera mainly investigates Cognitive psychology, Visual perception, Perception, Object-based attention and Figure–ground. His Cognitive psychology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Salient, Gaze, Cognition, Developmental psychology and Eye movement. The Visual perception study combines topics in areas such as Cued speech and Fixation.

His Perception study frequently links to other fields, such as Communication. His Communication study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Visual processing, Connectionism, Artificial intelligence and Information processing. As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Object-based attention, focusing on Visual search and, on occasion, Observer, Object based and Biased Competition Theory.

His most cited work include:

  • Does visual attention select objects or locations (384 citations)
  • Dissociated overt and covert recognition as an emergent property of a lesioned neural network. (244 citations)
  • Perceptual organization influences visual working memory. (193 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Shaun P. Vecera mainly focuses on Cognitive psychology, Perception, Visual perception, Artificial intelligence and Cognition. His Cognitive psychology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Attentional control, Visual short-term memory, Visual memory and Visual attention. Shaun P. Vecera combines subjects such as Social psychology and Communication with his study of Perception.

His Communication research integrates issues from Cognitive science and Information processing. His Visual perception study combines topics in areas such as Developmental psychology, Cued speech and Visual processing. Shaun P. Vecera works mostly in the field of Artificial intelligence, limiting it down to concerns involving Pattern recognition and, occasionally, Contrast.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cognitive psychology (59.12%)
  • Perception (35.85%)
  • Visual perception (18.24%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Cognitive psychology (59.12%)
  • Visual search (12.58%)
  • Stimulus (7.55%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Cognitive psychology, Visual search, Stimulus, Perception and Social psychology. He interconnects Salient and Attentional control in the investigation of issues within Cognitive psychology. His study looks at the relationship between Visual search and fields such as Visual attention, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

Visual processing and Visual perception are among the areas of Perception where the researcher is concentrating his efforts. In his work, Pattern recognition is strongly intertwined with Spatial vision, which is a subfield of Visual processing. His studies in Social psychology integrate themes in fields like Control and Reinforcement learning.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Feature-based statistical regularities of distractors modulate attentional capture. (17 citations)
  • Rejecting salient distractors: Generalization from experience. (17 citations)
  • Selection of multiple cued items is possible during visual short-term memory maintenance (11 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Cognition
  • Artificial intelligence
  • Perception

His main research concerns Cognitive psychology, Distraction, Visual search, Cued speech and Stimulus. His Cognitive psychology study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Working memory. His work carried out in the field of Visual search brings together such families of science as Feature based, Feature, Visual attention and Pattern recognition.

His Cued speech research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Object, Visual short-term memory, Sensory system and Set. His Stimulus study frequently involves adjacent topics like Attentional control. His Cognition research includes themes of Figure–ground, Monocular, Motor skill, Audiology and Symmetry.
