Abstract :
Perceptual organization is the process by which the visual scene is structured into coherent units suitable for further processing and selection. Having been primarily studied in 2D, here we present a neural model for perceptual organization of 3D surfaces. We demonstrate that our model is able to reproduce several key psychophysical results, including the spread of visual attention across 3D surfaces.
