Perceptual organization and neural computation.
Our present understanding of perceptual organization has its roots in the observations and qualitative principles of the Gestalt psychologists. Gestaltists and their associates identified and classified phenomena that reflect how perceptual systems derive representations of the environment based on fragmentary information and stimulus context. A broad range of phenomena was explored in this ear...
متن کاملSelf-organization of Computation in Neural Systems
When learning a complex task our nervous system self-organizes large groups of neurons into coherent dynamic activity patterns. During this, a cell assembly network with multiple, simultaneously active, and computationally powerful assemblies is formed; a process which is so far not understood. Here we show that the combination of synaptic plasticity with the slower process of synaptic scaling ...
متن کاملNeural Networks for Model Matching and Perceptual Organization
P. Anandan CS Department Yale University New Haven, CT 06520 We introduce an optimization approach for solving problems in computer vision that involve multiple levels of abstraction. Our objective functions include compositional and specialization hierarchies. We cast vision problems as inexact graph matching problems, formulate graph matching in terms of constrained optimization, and use anal...
متن کاملAttention and perceptual organization
How does attention contribute to perceptual experience? Within cognitive science, attention is known to contribute to the organization of sensory features into perceptual objects, or ‘‘object-based organization.’’ The current paper tackles a different type of organization and thus suggests a different role for attention in conscious perception. Within every perceptual experience we find that mo...
متن کاملPerceptual organization and attention.
It is widely assumed that the grouping of the visual field first described by the Gestalt psychologists and the related phenomenon of texture segregation occur very early in the processing of visual information and involve preattentive processes. All the recent evidence supporting this assumption comes from visual search experiments in which the subject is actively looking for a target and atte...
