Attention in vision is something that I think has fascinated me since my undergraduate days at the University of Toronto. That is pretty surprising because I went to university wanting to be an aerospace engineer or maybe a physicist. In my fi rst year, I subscribed to Scientifi c American , and in 1971 two papers caught my fancy: “ Advances in Pattern Recognition ” by R. Casey and G. Nagy and “ Eye Movements and Visual Perception ” by D. Noton and L. Stark. The fi rst dealt in part with optical character recognition by computer, defi ning algorithms that might capture the process of vision and allow a computer to see. The second described the possible role of eye movements in vision and how they might defi ne our internal representations of what we see. There had to be a connection! I have been trying to understand vision and what the connection between machine and biological vision might be since about 1974.
