Illusory contours (IC) have attracted a considerable interest in recent years to derive models
of how sensory information is processed and integrated within the visual system. In addition …

The goal of our study is a better understanding of the role of vertical mirror symmetry in
perceptual grouping. With a simple psychophysical task and a set of controlled stimuli, we …

We examined the neural mechanisms of functional asymmetry between hemispheres in the
processing of global and local information of hierarchical stimuli by measuring …

Human–computer interaction (HCI) is the study and development of interactive technology
and has witnessed significant changes in brief history. While we continue to use these …

Perceptual grouping refers to the process of determining which regions and parts of the
visual scene belong together as parts of higher order perceptual units such as objects or …

Across the natural world as well as the artificial worlds of maps, diagrams, and data
visualizations, feature similarity (eg, color and shape) links spatially separate areas into sets …

Individuals with Williams syndrome (WS) show a specific deficit in visuo‐spatial abilities.
This finding, however, derives mainly from performance on small‐scale laboratory‐based …

Previous studies making use of indirect processing measures have shown that perceptual
grouping can occur outside the focus of attention. However, no previous study has examined …

When presented with a complex visual scene, our visual system has to organize the discrete
entities present into useful perceptual units. The current work investigated the neural …

Behavioral studies suggest that perceptual grouping by proximity occurs earlier than
grouping by similarity. This notion is supported by recent electrophysiological evidence that …
