After a record number of applications to the most recent Call for proposals, we have given a boost of over €210 million to the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions. Now more than 700 additional researchers will be able to build their career in Europe.
Text on a blue background reads, ‘€210 million boost for 700+ researchers.’ Abstract lavender molecular shapes appear at the top and bottom of the image. The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions logo is above the text, and the EC logo is in the top-right corner.

How can principles of human cognition be applied in artificial systems? Here, we present one such example: inspired by the idea of a "priority map" in visual attention, we built a "priority field" within an artificial agent. The results are quite interesting. 🧵 arxiv.org/abs/2609.30704

From Visual Search to Movement Control: A Priority Field for Artificial Agents
Human spatial attention is widely conceptualized as being guided by a priority map that integrates perceptual salience, current goals, and past experiences. Here, we extend priority-based computation ...
