چکیده

We examined how contours defined by different attributes are integrated into a shape using the visual search paradigm and found that the search for the bar orientation is particularly difficult when each bar is composed of motion-defined and luminance- or color-defined contours. This does not support the view that the shape integration process is based on the unified contour representation entirely common to all attributes, but suggests that motion-defined contours are integrated through a different process.

Localizing contours defined by more than one attribute

Two experiments were run in order to test how information from different attributes is combined to localize contours. In Expt 1 the apparent position of a contour defined by one attribute was measured while a contour defined by another attribute was presented beside it. Interactions were found between all pairings of luminance, color, motion and texture. These results suggested that the informa...

Surface reconstruction of detect contours for medical image registration purpose

Although, most of the abnormal structures of human brain do not alter the shape of outer envelope of brain (surface), some abnormalities can deform the surface extensively. However, this may be a major problem in a surface-based registration technique, since two nearly identical surfaces are required for surface fitting process. A type of verification known as the circularity check for th...

Material properties from contours: New insights on object perception

In this work we explored phenomenologically the visual complexity of the material attributes on the basis of the contours that define the boundaries of a visual object. The starting point is the rich and pioneering work done by Gestalt psychologists and, more in detail, by Rubin, who first demonstrated that contours contain most of the information related to object perception, like the shape, t...

Application of surface-derived attributes in determining boundaries of potential-field sources

This paper describes an edge detection method based on surface-derived attributes. The surface-derived attributes are widely used in the interpretation ofseismic datain two main categories: (1) derivative attributes including the dip angle and the azimuth; (2) derivative attributes including curvature attributes.    In general, the magnitude of the normal curvature of a surface (curvature attri...

The spatial frequency and orientation selectivity of the mechanisms that extract motion-defined contours

The human visual system can undertake a specialized form of motion integration, one that enables the presence of extended spatial contours to be disambiguated from their backgrounds. We have shown previously that the visual system can selectively integrate local motion signals when their directions are along spatial contours and its efficiency is inversely related to the curvature of the contou...
