Abstract :
Some basic computer-vision techniques are reviewed and their possible relevance to the modeling of human visual processes is considered. Special emphasis is given to image-segmentation techniques and how they relate to processes of perceptual organization, such as those embodied in the Gestalt ´laws´.
