Sparse components distinguish visual pathways & their alignment to neural networks

ICLR 2025spotlight

The ventral, dorsal, and lateral streams in high-level human visual cortex are implicated in distinct functional processes. Yet, deep neural networks (DNNs) trained on a single task model the entire visual system surprisingly well, hinting at common computational principles across these pathways. To…

Evaluating Multiview Object Consistency in Humans and Image Models

NeurIPS 2024poster

We introduce a benchmark to directly evaluate the alignment between human observers and vision models on a 3D shape inference task. We leverage an experimental design from the cognitive sciences: given a set of images, participants identify which contain the same/different objects, despite considera…

Physion: Evaluating Physical Prediction from Vision in Humans and Machines

NeurIPS 2021poster

While current vision algorithms excel at many challenging tasks, it is unclear how well they understand the physical dynamics of real-world environments. Here we introduce Physion, a dataset and benchmark for rigorously evaluating the ability to predict how physical scenarios will evolve over time.…
