Contour completion through depth interferes with stereoacuity
Local disparity signals must interact in visual cortex to represent boundaries and surfaces of three-dimensional (3D) objects. We investigated how disparity signals interact in 3D contours and in 3D surfaces generated from the contours. We compared flat (single disparity) stimuli with curved (multi-disparity) stimuli. We found no consistent differences in sensitivity to contours vs. surfaces; f...
متن کاملAmodal completion impairs stereoacuity discrimination
Visual stimulus configuration can influence elementary visual processes. We provide empirical evidence to demonstrate this effect in stereoscopic depth discrimination. Two vertically aligned bars were presented in stereo such that one of them was closer to the human observer. Observers discriminated which of the two was closest. In the first, "occluded" condition, a horizontal bar, positioned c...
متن کاملCONTOUR COMPLETION AND RELATIVE DEPTH: Petter’s Rule and Support Ratio
The ability to see complete objects despite occlusion is critical to humans’ visual success. Human vision can amodally complete visual objects that are partially occluded, and modally complete visual objects that occlude other objects. Previous experiments showed that the perceived strength of a completed contour depends on its support ratio: the ratio of the length of the physically specified ...
متن کاملAnisotropic contour completion
In this paper we introduce a novel application of the diffusion tensor for anisotropic image processing. The Anisotropic Contour Completion (ACC) we suggest consists in extending the characteristic function of the open curve by means of a degenerated diffusion tensor that prevents any diffusion in the normal direction. We show that ACC is equivalent to a dilation with a continuous elliptic stru...
متن کاملContour integration across depth
In order to investigate the extent of the local connections subserving contour integration across depth, we measured performance for detecting the continuity of a path of Gabor elements distributed in depth and embedded in a three-dimensional field of random background elements. The results show that performance cannot be explained in terms of monocular performance and that contour information ...
