Taking the neural sampling code very seriously: A data-driven approach for evaluating generative models of the visual system

NeurIPS 2023poster

Prevailing theories of perception hypothesize that the brain implements perception via Bayesian inference in a generative model of the world. One prominent theory, the Neural Sampling Code (NSC), posits that neuronal responses to a stimulus represent samples from the posterior distribution over late…

Towards robust vision by multi-task learning on monkey visual cortex

NeurIPS 2021poster

Deep neural networks set the state-of-the-art across many tasks in computer vision, but their generalization ability to simple image distortions is surprisingly fragile. In contrast, the mammalian visual system is robust to a wide range of perturbations. Recent work suggests that this generalization…
