Can Functional Transfer Methods Capture Simple Inductive Biases?

AISTATS 2022poster

Transferring knowledge embedded in trained neural networks is a core problem in areas like model compression and continual learning. Among knowledge transfer approaches, functional transfer methods such as knowledge distillation and representational distance learning are particularly promising, sinc…

Learning from brains how to regularize machines

NeurIPS 2019poster

Despite impressive performance on numerous visual tasks, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) --- unlike brains --- are often highly sensitive to small perturbations of their input, e.g. adversarial noise leading to erroneous decisions. We propose to regularize CNNs using large-scale neuroscience da…

Stimulus domain transfer in recurrent models for large scale cortical population prediction on video

NeurIPS 2018poster

To better understand the representations in visual cortex, we need to generate better predictions of neural activity in awake animals presented with their ecological input: natural video. Despite recent advances in models for static images, models for predicting responses to natural video are scarce…
