Pinna and Conti (, 2019, , 149, doi:10.3390/brainsci9060149) presented phenomena concerning the salience and role of contrast polarity in human visual perception, particularly in amodal completion. These phenomena are indeed illustrative thereof, but here, the focus is on their claims (1) that neither simplicity nor likelihood approaches can account for these phenomena; and (2) that simplicity and likelihood are equivalent. I argue that their first claim is based on incorrect assumptions, whereas their second claim is simply untrue.
平纳和孔蒂（2019年，第149页，doi:10.3390/brainsci9060149）介绍了有关对比度极性在人类视觉感知中的显著性和作用的现象，特别是在非模态完成方面。这些现象确实说明了这一点，但在此，重点在于他们的主张：（1）简单性方法和似然性方法都无法解释这些现象；（2）简单性和似然性是等效的。我认为他们的第一个主张基于错误的假设，而第二个主张根本不成立。
