Selective attention allows to process stimuli which are behaviorally relevant, while attenuating distracting information. However, it is an open question what mechanisms implement selective routing, and how they are engaged in dependence on…

The Random Utility Model (RUM) is the gold standard in describing the behavior of a population of consumers. The RUM operates under the assumption of transitivity in consumers' preference relationships, but the empirical literature has…

We propose a dynamic computational time model to accelerate the average processing time for recurrent visual attention (RAM). Rather than attention with a fixed number of steps for each input image, the model learns to decide when to stop…
