Bayesian contour extrapolation: Geometric determinants of good continuation
We investigated whether observers use rate of change of curvature in visually extrapolating contour shape. Arcs of Euler spirals with positive or negative rate of change of curvature gamma (hence linearly increasing or decreasing curvature) disappeared behind the straight-edge of a half-disk occluder. Observers adjusted the position and the orientation of a line probe around the curved portion ...
متن کاملThe role of convexity in perceptual completion: beyond good continuation
Since the seminal work of the Gestalt psychologists, there has been great interest in understanding what factors determine the perceptual organization of images. While the Gestaltists demonstrated the significance of grouping cues such as similarity, proximity and good continuation, it has not been well understood whether their catalog of grouping cues is complete--in part due to the paucity of...
متن کاملThird-Order Edge Statistics: Contour Continuation, Curvature, and Cortical Connections
Association field models have attempted to explain human contour grouping performance, and to explain the mean frequency of long-range horizontal connections across cortical columns in V1. However, association fields only depend on the pairwise statistics of edges in natural scenes. We develop a spectral test of the sufficiency of pairwise statistics and show there is significant higher order s...
متن کاملUnique continuation property for a higher order nonlinear Schrödinger equation
We prove that, if a sufficiently smooth solution u to the initial value problem associated with the equation ∂t u+ iα∂2 xu+ β∂3 xu+ iγ |u|2u+ δ|u|∂xu+ u∂xu= 0, x, t ∈R, is supported in a half line at two different instants of time then u≡ 0. To prove this result we derive a new Carleman type estimate by extending the method introduced by Kenig et al. in [Ann. Inst. H. Poincaré Anal. Non Linéair...
متن کاملRole Breadth - a Higher Order Construct Identifying the Good Soldier
Ever since early works (Barnard, 1938; Katz & Kahn, 1966) first exalted the importance to the organization of spontaneous behaviors exceeding formal expectations, a large volume of role research has emerged, most of which has focused on organizational citizenship behaviors (OCBs). The organizational behavior literature is replete with studies of individual roles in organizations, focusing almos...
