Answer to Question 1

Answer: Relatability refers to how well contours relate to each other. The basic question in addressing relatability is how likely are two parts to be part of the same contour.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The binding problem focuses on how we associate different sensory and perceptual features (e.g., size, shape, color) to ultimately perceive a single object. This problem arises because we appear to process different features in different areas of the brain, indicating that these individual features must be combined at some point to form a single object.
