Allocentric flocking

open access: yesNature Communications
Understanding how group-level dynamics arise from individual interactions remains a core challenge in collective behavior research. Traditional models assume animals follow simple behavioral rules, like explicitly aligning with neighbors. We present here

The Impact of Vision Loss on Allocentric Spatial Coding

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Several works have demonstrated that visual experience plays a critical role in the development of allocentric spatial coding. Indeed, while children with a typical development start to code space by relying on allocentric landmarks from the first year ...

Allocentric directional processing in the rodent and human retrosplenial cortex [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014
Head direction cells in the rodent brain have been investigated for a number of years, providing us with a detailed understanding of how the rodent brain codes for allocentric direction.

A critical review of the allocentric spatial representation and its neural underpinnings: toward a network-based perspective

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014
While the widely studied allocentric spatial representation holds a special status in neuroscience research, its exact nature and neural underpinnings continue to be the topic of debate, particularly in humans.

Putting Egocentric and Allocentric into Perspective

open access: yes, 2010
In the last decade many studies examined egocentric and allocentric spatial relations. For various tasks, navigators profit from both kinds of relations. However, their interrelation seems to be underspecified.

Egocentric and Allocentric Spatial Memory in Korsakoff’s Amnesia [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2020
The goal of the present study was to investigate spatial memory in a group of patients with amnesia due to Korsakoff’s syndrome (KS). We used a virtual spatial memory task that allowed us to separate the use of egocentric and allocentric spatial ...

Egocentric and Allocentric Reference Frames Can Flexibly Support Contextual Cueing [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
We investigated if contextual cueing can be guided by egocentric and allocentric reference frames. Combinations of search configurations and external frame orientations were learned during a training phase.

Allocentric Emotional Affordances in HRI: The Multimodal Binding [PDF]

open access: yesMultimodal Technologies and Interaction, 2018
The concept of affordance perception is one of the distinctive traits of human cognition; and its application to robots can dramatically improve the quality of human-robot interaction (HRI).

Allocentric representation in the human amygdala and ventral visual stream [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The hippocampus and the entorhinal cortex are considered the main brain structures for allocentric representation of the external environment. Here, we show that the amygdala and the ventral visual stream are involved in allocentric representation ...

Landmark-based spatial navigation across the human lifespan

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Human spatial cognition has been mainly characterized in terms of egocentric (body-centered) and allocentric (world-centered) wayfinding behavior. It was hypothesized that allocentric spatial coding, as a special high-level cognitive ability, develops ...
