BigMaQ: A Big Macaque Motion and Animation Dataset Bridging Image and 3D Pose Representations

ICLR 2026poster

The recognition of dynamic and social behavior in animals is fundamental for advancing several areas of the life sciences, including ethology, ecology, medicine and neuroscience. Recent progress in deep learning has enabled an automated recognition of such behavior from video data. However, an accur…

Register and [CLS] tokens induce a decoupling of local and global features in large ViTs

NeurIPS 2025poster

Recent work has shown that the attention maps of the widely popular DINOv2 model exhibit artifacts, which hurt both model interpretability and performance on dense image tasks. These artifacts emerge due to the model repurposing patch tokens with redundant local information for the storage of global…

Parallel Backpropagation for Shared-Feature Visualization

NeurIPS 2024spotlight

High-level visual brain regions contain subareas in which neurons appear to respond more strongly to examples of a particular semantic category, like faces or bodies, rather than objects. However, recent work has shown that while this finding holds on average, some out-of-category stimuli also activ…
