Selective visual attention is a fascinating mechanism of the
human brain that is essential to solve the difficult visual
search problem. In this paper we first review the recent
neurological findings that establish the presence and
functional properties of detailed spatial representations
beyond early visual cortex and investigate the role of attention on these retinotopic representations. Then we survey the computer vision literature to show how visual selective attention is incorporated into algorithms and models of visual search.
