I think the summary of the Brain-Based Target Expansion paper is a bit different than how our system was designed.

Relevant quote from the paper:

We propose dynamically manipulating the size of high priority targets as a function of the user’s current state. During periods of difficult multitasking, the target size of high priority targets expand, making them easier to click and the lower priority targets, in effect, comparatively evasive. Under less mentally strenuous circumstances, the size of high priority targets returns to default settings.
