AbstractMore than a century of vision research has identified symmetry as a fundamental cue, which aids the visual system in making inferences about objects and surfaces in natural scenes. Most studies have focused on one type of symmetry, reflection, presented at a single image location. However, the visual system responds strongly to other types of symmetries, and to symmetries that are repeated across the image plane to form textures.
