Kogo and Wagemans provide an intriguing way of assigning a polarity value to closed edges in fragmented images (solving the border ownership problem), but their model lacks generality and disregards connectability as a relevant aspect of visual completion. The lack of generality depends on considering concave disk sectors (pacmen) as the main inducers of illusory contours. Connectability is crucial for defining the occurrence, the salience and the shape of completed contours. A complete theory of completion should integrate border ownership and connectability, rather than emphasizing one aspect over the other.
戈果和瓦根曼斯提供了一种有趣的方法,为碎片化图像中的封闭边缘赋值极性值(解决边界所有权问题),但他们的模型缺乏通用性,并且忽略了连通性作为视觉完成的一个相关方面。缺乏通用性取决于将凹盘扇区(小精灵)视为产生错觉轮廓的主要诱导物。连通性对于定义完成轮廓的出现、显著性和形状至关重要。完整的完成理论应该整合边界所有权和连通性,而不是强调一个方面而忽略另一个方面。
