Abstract

We propose a computational model to extend the region of attention in a visual scene. We assume that the visual information that is collected through bottom-up process is integrated by various mechanisms of perception process which in result further decides the attention regions of the object to accurately determine the object. This cycle is known as perception-action cycle. In our study we try to quantify relation between initial attention region and surrounding regions using Gestalt principles.
