Zusammenfassung:
Some of the central problems to be solved by the brain, such as figure-ground coding and object recognition, concern the binding of separately coded feature elements into coherent object representations. The binding problem has recently been approached by a variety of disciplines, notably psychophysics and experimental psychology, electrophysiology and neurophysiology, and computational modelling. This Special Issue brings together 21 of papers, mainly all from psychology and computational modelling, that address issues in Gestalt formation, the relation of the grouping and binding processes to visual attention, the role of temporal factors for grouping and binding, the neuronal correlates of binding mechanisms, the development of binding operations in infants, and the breakdown of these processes following brain damage.
