We would like to introduce recent developments in the computational cognitive neuroscience domain, applied to computer vision. Our objective in this paper is to propose a biologicially inspired algorithm to solve a computer vision problem that is to focus (by the mean of eye movements or camera movements) on several targets that share given properties. This algorithm relies on the paradigm of distributed, asynchronous and numerical computations that we think could lead to efficient algorithms in the long run.
