Figure 7.

Amodal completion of the white square partially occluded by the gray disk. In the first row the original image (left) and the point-of-view surface (center, right) are shown. In the second row, the edge map g₁ (left), the subjective surface (center), and the occluding disk boundary (right) are shown. The amodal completion of the square is shown in the third row. The new edge map g₂ (left) is obtained from the previous one by simply removing the features corresponding to the occluding object (disk). This new edge map allows the formation of a new subjective contour (center) and the square boundary (right). We use the value β = 0.3 in the edge indicator.
