    "title": "A dynamic neural field model of self-regulated eye movements during category learning",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Computational models of category learning and attention have\nhistorically focused on capturing trial and experiment level\ninteractions between attention and decision. However,\nevidence has been accumulating that suggests that the\nmoment-to-moment attentional dynamics of an individual\naffects both their immediate decision-making processes as\nwell as their overall learning performance. To extend the\nscope of these formal theories requires a modeling approach\nthat can index fine-grained decision-making at millisecond\ntime scales. Here we implement a model of eye movements\nduring category learning using concepts from Dynamic\nNeural Field Theory research. Our model uses a combination\nof timing signals, spatial competition and Hebbian association\nto simultaneously account for a number of foundational\nattentional efficiency results from eye tracking and category\nlearning. We report the results of fitting this model to\naccuracy, fixation probabilities, fixation counts and fixation\nduration data in 42 subjects from a standard category learning\nexperiment.",
