Abstract
The mechanics of occlusion of one surface by another are described by a set of integer linear constraints. These constraints insure that the output of a contour grouping process is physically valid and consistent with the image evidence. Among the many feasible solutions, the most compelling is the solution which best explains the presence and form of image structure. The problem of computing a complete and consistent surface boundary representation is reduced to solving an integer linear program
