Supplemental Material for Adaptive Computation as a New Mechanism of Dynamic Human Attention

We provide supplementary materials accompanying our paper, which include seven additional figures.Figure S1 demonstrates a drop in task-relevance in the scenario where a target is statistically indistinguishable from a distractor.Figure S2 provides additional analysis that supports modeling decisions, and Figure S3 visualizes model covariates.Figure S4 reports the results of using inferences from the adaptive computation instead of the fixed-resource architecture to compute heuristic covariates in the probes experiment.Figures S5 andS6 visualize the results of grid search over the load and importance hyperparameters, respectively.
