Local and Global Gestalt Laws: A Neurally Based Spectral Approach [PDF]
Neural Computation, 2017 This letter presents a mathematical model of figure-ground articulation that takes into account both local and global gestalt laws and is compatible with the functional architecture of the primary visual cortex (V1). The local gestalt law of good continuation is described by means of suitable connectivity kernels that are derived from Lie group theory

Gestalt laws enhance the representation of figures over backgrounds in the visual cortex and influence contrast perception [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThe Gestalt laws of perceptual organization determine which image regions in a visual scene are perceived as figures or background. Convex, enclosed, and symmetric regions are more likely to be perceived as figures, but the underlying neural mechanisms ...

Spike synchrony as a measure of Gestalt structure [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThe function of spike synchrony is debatable: some researchers view it as a mechanism for binding perceptual features, others – as a byproduct of brain activity. We argue for an alternative computational role: synchrony can estimate the prior probability

Bio-inspired contour extraction via EM-driven deformable and rotatable directivity-probing mask [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 This paper presents a novel bio-inspired edge-oriented approach to perceptual contour extraction. Our method does not rely on segmentation and can unsupervised learn to identify edge points that are readily grouped, without invoking any connecting ...

Interaction of Sensitivity, Emotions, and Motivations During Visual Perception [PDF]
SensorsWhen an organism is exposed to environmental stimuli of varying intensity, the adaptive changes in the CNS can be explained by several conceptual provisions: the law of motivation–activation by Yerkes and Dodson, the laws of force and pessimal protective
