Qualitative similarities and differences in visual object representations between brains and deep networks

G Jacob, RT Pramod, H Katti, SP Arun - Nature communications, 2021 - nature.com
Deep neural networks have revolutionized computer vision, and their object representations
across layers match coarsely with visual cortical areas in the brain. However, whether these …

Early emergence of solid shape coding in natural and deep network vision

R Srinath, A Emonds, Q Wang, AA Lempel… - Current Biology, 2021 - cell.com
Area V4 is the first object-specific processing stage in the ventral visual pathway, just as
area MT is the first motion-specific processing stage in the dorsal pathway. For almost 50 …

Symmetric objects become special in perception because of generic computations in neurons

RT Pramod, SP Arun - Psychological science, 2018 - journals.sagepub.com
Symmetry is a salient visual property: It is easy to detect and influences perceptual
phenomena from segmentation to recognition. Yet researchers know little about its neural …

Multiplicative mixing of object identity and image attributes in single inferior temporal neurons

NA Ratan Murty, SP Arun - Proceedings of the National …, 2018 - National Acad Sciences
Object recognition is challenging because the same object can produce vastly different
images, mixing signals related to its identity with signals due to its image attributes, such as …

A balanced comparison of object invariances in monkey IT neurons

NAR Murty, SP Arun - eneuro, 2017 - eneuro.org
Our ability to recognize objects across variations in size, position, or rotation is based on
invariant object representations in higher visual cortex. However, we know little about how …

Do deep neural networks see the way we do?

G Jacob, RT Pramod, H Katti, SP Arun - bioRxiv, 2019 - biorxiv.org
Deep neural networks have revolutionized computer vision, and their object representations
match coarsely with the brain. As a result, it is widely believed that any fine scale differences …

Effect of silhouetting and inversion on view invariance in the monkey inferotemporal cortex

NA Ratan Murty, SP Arun - Journal of Neurophysiology, 2017 - journals.physiology.org
We effortlessly recognize objects across changes in viewpoint, but we know relatively little
about the features that underlie viewpoint invariance in the brain. Here, we set out to …
