视觉搜索最重要的应用之一是在医学图像的解释中。与视觉搜索的许多应用程序一样,医学图像解释通常被描述为较低的“流行度”,这意味着目标相对较少。例如,乳腺癌筛查的患病率约为0.5%。在这篇综述中,我从医学图像知觉和基础心理学的角度对流行对视觉搜索的影响的研究进行了综述。为了提供一些定量的严谨性,我包括了低流行率对视觉搜索性能影响的荟萃分析。我综合了这两个领域的发现,并确定了对临床实践的实践建议和认知心理学家的理论见解。
One of the most important applications of visual search is in the interpretation of medical images. Like many applications of visual search, medical image interpretation is typically characterized as a low "prevalence" context, meaning that targets are relatively rare. Breast cancer screening, for example, has a prevalence of around 0.5%. In this review, I present a survey of research on the effects of prevalence on visual search from both the medical image perception and basic psychological science perspectives. In order to provide some quantitative rigor, I include a meta-analysis of the effects of low prevalence on visual search performance. I synthesize findings from both fields, and identify both the practical suggestions for clinical practice and theoretical insights for cognitive psychologists.
