MapNet: An Allocentric Spatial Memory for Mapping Environments [PDF]
Autonomous agents need to reason about the world beyond their instantaneous sensory input. Integrating information over time, however, requires switching from an egocentric representation of a scene to an allocentric one, expressed in the world reference frame. It must also be possible to update the representation dynamically, which requires localizing

Fish welfare in a changing world: New developments and current challenges
Abstract The welfare of non‐human animals is central to ethical discussions on animal use, with increasing attention to fish welfare across research, aquaria, aquaculture, and fisheries. This paper reviews current theoretical approaches to animal welfare and recent advances in defining and assessing fish welfare since the seminal paper by Huntingford ...

Boundary Vector Cells Encode a Future‐Biased Spectrum of Positions in the Rat
ABSTRACT Spatial tuning is a hallmark property of neural firing in the hippocampal formation. Yet, that tuning is often less well correlated with the instantaneous current position of an animal than it is with an integrated version of the past or future state of the animal.

ABSTRACT Tool use research has long made the distinction between tool using that is considered learned and flexible, and that which appears to be instinctive and stereotyped. However, animals with an inherited tool use specialisation can exhibit flexibility, while tool use that is spontaneously innovated can be limited in its expression and facilitated

Investigating the Limits of Allocentric Memory [PDF]
There are at least two distinct ways in which the brain encodes spatial information. In egocentric representations locations are encoded relative to the observer, whereas in allocentric representations locations are encoded relative to the environment ...

This review shows that environment–memory research is divided not only by method, but by different definitions of what an environment is through the comparison of category‐, feature‐, and context‐based traditions. ABSTRACT Research on memory and the physical environment has expanded across neuroscience, environmental psychology, and spatial cognition ...

The stationarity hypothesis: an allocentric criterion in visual perception
Having long considered that extraretinal information plays little or no role in spatial vision, the study of structure from motion (SfM) has confounded a moving observer perceiving a stationary object with a non-moving observer perceiving a rigid object undergoing equal and opposite motion.

The Development of Temporal Memory for Complex Events
ABSTRACT Remembering when past events occurred is a key component of episodic memory, yet its developmental trajectory remains only partially understood. This study examined how children aged 6 and 10, compared to young adults, recall the timing of events embedded in an 11‐min cartoon.

Roles of egocentric and allocentric spatial representations in locomotion and reorientation [PDF]
Four experiments investigated the nature of spatial representations used in locomotion. Participants learned the layout of several objects and then pointed to the objects while blindfolded in 3 conditions: before turning (baseline), after turning to a ...

Spatial task context makes short-latency reaches prone to induced Roelofs illusion
The perceptual localization of an object is often more prone to illusions than an immediate visuomotor action towards that object. The induced Roelofs effect (IRE) probes the illusory influence of task-irrelevant visual contextual stimuli on the ...
