ECVision indexed and annotated bibliography of cognitive computer vision publications This bibliography was created by Hilary Buxton and Benoit Gaillard, University of Sussex, as part of ECVision Specific Action 8-1 The complete text version of this BibTeX file is available here: ECVision_bibliography.bib C. M. Moore and S. Yantis and B. Vaughan Object-based visual selection: {E}vidence from perceptual completion ABSTRACT A large body of evidence suggests that visual attention selects objects as well a spatial locations. If attention is to be regarded as truly object based, then it should operate not only on object representations that are explicit in the image, but also on representations that are the result of earlier perceptual completion processes. Reporting the results of two experiments, we show that when attention is directed to part of a perceptual object, other parts of that object enjoy an attentional advantage as well. In particular, we show that this object-specific attentional advantage accrues to partly occluded objects and to objects defined by subjective contours. The results corroborate the claim that perceptual completion precedies object-based attentional selection.
