Perceptual organization is a key issue of Vision Science challenging all its main approaches, be they computational, psychophysical, neurophysiological or phenomenological. It concerns the problem of why we perceive a world articulated in objects such as people, cities, houses, cars and trees, and not in differences of luminances, edges and bars, or in Wertheimer’s (1923) words: I stand at the ...

In this work, perceptual organization has been studied with the same spirit and phenomenological methods used by Gestalt psychologists. This was accomplished through new conditions that cannot be explained in terms of the classical principles of grouping. Perceptual grouping represents the way through which our visual system builds integrated elements on the basis of the maximal homogeneity amo...

Perceptual organization is a vague term sometimes defined as the process by which we perceive our surroundings as a coherent whole. There is considerable debate about the mechanisms that accomplish perceptual organization. There is also disagreement about the methods we use to study perceptual organization. We believe that some of this disagreement is related to a commonly accepted hierarchical...

In this letter, we study the R-D properties of independent sources based on MSE and SSIM, and compare the bit allocation performance under the MINAVE and MINMAX criteria in video encoding. The results show that MINMAX has similar results in terms of average distortion with MINAVE by using SSIM, which illustrates the consistency between these two criteria in independent perceptual video coding. ...

The claim that the syllable constitutes a basic perceptual unit in French is commonly accepted. It is based in part on the syllable effect [1] obtained with words. The present study extends these syllable detection experiments to pseudowords. Four experiments failed to replicate the syllable effect observed on words. Detection responses in pseudowords are made as soon as sufficient information ...

AbstractThis study was undertaken to better understand the probable mechanisms of salt stress tolerance induced by seed priming of salicylic acid (SA) in barley. The barley seeds were pre-soaked by SA or water and then sown under different saline watering regimes including 0.62 (tapwater), 5, 10 and 15 dS m-1 in petri dishes and trend of water absorbing, seedling growth, germination rate and pe...

In the present experiment, auditory stream organization was investigated in the presence of perceptually restored continuity. It was found that auditory streaming processes tend to yield the same perceptual organization independently of the presence or absence of perceptual restoration. Other observations include the dominance of frequency proximity over trajectory as a perceptual organization ...
