Amodal completion and localization

open access: yesVision Research, 2000
In a three-line vernier acuity task, a central line was localized between two aligned line segments. Accuracy did not improve when the segments formed a unified amodally completed percept. In a two-line vernier acuity task, a line was localized below a target line placed next to a physically segmented flank stimulus. Shifts in mean points of subjective

A Computational Model for Amodal Completion [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Imaging and Vision, 2016
This paper presents a computational model to recover the most likely interpretation of the 3D scene structure from a planar image, where some objects may occlude others. The estimated scene interpretation is obtained by integrating some global and local cues and provides both the complete disoccluded objects that form the scene and their ordering ...

Amodal completion impairs stereoacuity discrimination

open access: yesVision Research, 2006
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"

This essay analyses the concept of ‘ill-defined area’ that Ernst Gombrich (1909–2001) coined in Art & Illusion: A Study in the Psychology of Pictorial Representation (1960).

On the Spatiotemporal Nature of Vision, as Revealed by Covered Bridges and Puddles: A Dispatch from Vermont

open access: yesi-Perception, 2021
Retinal painting, anorthoscopic perception and amodal completion are terms to describe visual phenomena that highlight the spatiotemporal integrative mechanisms that underlie primate vision. Although commonly studied using simplified lab-friendly stimuli

Deficits of knowledge versus executive control in semantic cognition: Insights from cued naming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Deficits of semantic cognition in semantic dementia and in aphasia consequent on CVA (stroke) are qualitatively different. Patients with semantic dementia are characterised by progressive degradation of central semantic representations, whereas ...
