In a study, now out in Attention Perception & Psychophysics (by @Psychonomic_Soc), @ananyapassi and I have some cool insights about how parts combine in sound-shape associations (in the famous Bouba-Kiki effect). Read on to find out more! 1/12

Exciting new preprint from the lab, led by an amazing student, @ckelseyhan!
How do different brains create unique visual experiences from identical sensory input? New preprint w/ @MichaelFBonner: "High-dimensional structure underlying individual differences in naturalistic visual experience" 🧠 arxiv.org/abs/2505.12653

Can we gain a deep understanding of neural representations through dimensionality reduction? Our new work shows that the visual representations of the human brain need to be understood in high dimensions. w/ @RajThrowaway42 & Brice Ménard. arxiv.org/abs/2409.06843#

Why do varied DNN designs yield equally good models of human vision? Our preprint with @michaelfbonner shows that diverse DNNs represent images with a shared set of latent dimensions, and these shared dimensions turn out to also be the most brain-aligned.

What underlies the emergence of cortex-aligned representations in DNNs? Large-scale pre-training has been a major focus, but we show that certain architectural manipulations can yield high brain similarity even in untrained CNNs. w/@michaelfbonner biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

New paper out in @PLOSCompBiol. The best deep neural network models of visual cortex do not reduce representations to low-dimensional manifolds—instead, they benefit from high-dimensionality. Led by a fantastic student, @EricElmoznino. journals.plos.org/ploscompbi…

In a new study, out in Attention Perception and Psychophysics, @ananyapassi and I have cool insights to share about a fascinating cross-modal association called the Bouba-Kiki effect. Consider the shapes below: which shape would you call a Bouba? 1/n rdcu.be/c1MbL

Our lab has an exciting new direction spearheaded by the amazing @GeorgittaV to study perception in kids with autism and ADHD. Pleases circulate widely! For more info see sites.google.com/site/vision…
Excited to share our new ongoing research where we will be trying to answer some interesting questions on how visual perception develops through childhood. We will be working with neurotypical children and children diagnosed with Autism and ADHD.

What are the most elegant/beautiful ideas in ML? Feels like mathematicians & physicists often talk about aesthetics, but we very rarely do. Why?

Its raining good news here....now the equally amazing Thomas Cherian (@copy2thomas) wins the Troscianko Travel Award of @ecvp2022!! 🥳 Thomas will talk about how monkeys see occluded objects, something that we are maha excited at having shown.
