Paper Abstract:
|
The Attention Network Model of the human brain is accepted to explain attention tasks. An Attention Network Test (ANT) has been developed to try to measure the performance of these networks. A simulation system, the ANTon, model has been developed in Java and is implemented by using a Multi-Agent (MAS) approach where one agent is assigned to one network. Tasks are assigned to the agents according to the attention network theory. A sequential model based on simple Java objects has been constructed, aiming to show the relations and the workflow between the different attention networks. Later on a parallel object model is going to be designed based on Hodgkin-Huxley model of neuron interactions between the visual attention networks of the brain. |
