Insights can be applied to diagnosing neurodevelopmental disorders like autism, improving road safety and enhancing the reliability of eyewitness testimonies
Our brains pay attention to details, but may sometimes fail to notice even marked differences. This phenomenon of overlooking a visual change, or ‘change blindness’, has been studied by a research group at the Centre for Neuroscience and the Department of Computer Science and Automation, Indian Institute of Science (IISc.).
They have developed a novel computational model of eye movement that can predict a person’s ability to detect changes in their visual environment, in a study published in PLoS Computational Biology.
