Abstract:
The compositions we use to test together are, lighting, color, shape, movement, vertical and horizontal lines. The techniques are tested together in a 3D environment and rendered in a game engine. We want to guide the player on a subconscious level using compositional techniques that suits our type of game the most so we can create readable environments that can guide the players and highlight important objects and areas. The study is based on a game project we are working on together with three other people that are split up into sub-groups and researches different areas. Creating the levels

Abstract:
This thesis develops a trainable object-recognition algorithm. This algorithm represents objects using their salient features. The algorithm applies an attention mechanism to speed up feature detection. A trainable component-based object recognition system which implements the developed algorithm has been created. This system has two layers. The first layer contains several individual feature classifiers. They detect salient features which compose higher level objects from input images. The second layer judges if those detected features form a valid object. An object is represented by a featur

Abstract:
The research reported in this thesis attempted to establish the underlying representational substrate within which cognition, perception and action interact. A theoretical framework was adopted in which attention functions at a system level as the mediating mechanism between cognitive functions and sensorimotor responses. This was achieved by addressing two issues: a) whether representations activated by language comprehension can compete with representations involved in eye movement control; and b) whether this competition creates attentional conflict within the system and thus modulates the

Abstract:
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common neuropsychiatric disorders in childhood among school-aged children. It is characterized by behavior disinhibition, overactivity and/or difficulty in sustaining attention. Psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy are reported ways of treating ADHD. Around 35% of individuals diagnosed with ADHD also met the criteria for anxiety disorders that commonly coexist with ADHD. If not treated up to 70% of children with ADHD continue to meet the diagnostic criteria into adolescence. Psychostimulants (Methylphenidate) are the first line of

Studying the field of visual attention in the context of games can help level designers to make the players feel more immersed and increase the general enjoyment of a game. With the help of visual cues, the designers are able to lead the players through the levels without breaking the aesthetics of the game, thus preventing to break the immersion. This study is presenting a method for analyzing visual cues in a 3D adventure platform game. Gathering data with the help of today's eye-tracking technology. The results can ultimately be used as a guideline for future work in the field.
