Selecting where to look is a necessary step in human vision that is vital for guiding social behaviours. For example, although we inadvertently look toward faces in our environment, especially faces expressing emotion, we do not know how this is accomplished. This project aims to define the mechanisms responsible for detecting and prioritising faces in the human brain. The results are expected to advance our understanding of how vision operates in daily life, and augment theories of how the prioritisation of social cues might differ in people living with Anxiety disorders. It is anticipated that the project outcomes will also inform the development of artificial vision systems that can interpret social meaning in visual environments.

选择看向的地方是人类视觉的必要步骤，对于指导社会行为至关重要。例如，虽然我们不经意地看向周围环境中的面孔，尤其是表达情感的面孔，但我们不知道这是如何实现的。该项目旨在定义人脑中负责检测和优先考虑面孔的机制。研究结果预计将增进我们对日常生活中视觉运作方式的理解，并增强关于社交线索的优先顺序在焦虑症患者中可能有何不同的理论。预计该项目的成果还将为人工视觉系统的开发提供信息，该系统可以解释视觉环境中的社会意义。
