Unsupervised learning of clutter-resistant visual representations from natural videos
(Center for Brains, Minds and Machines (CBMM), arXiv, 2015-04-27)
Populations of neurons in inferotemporal cortex (IT) maintain an explicit code for object identity that also tolerates transformations of object appearance e.g., position, scale, viewing angle [1, 2, 3]. Though the learning ...
The Invariance Hypothesis Implies Domain-Specific Regions in Visual Cortex
(Center for Brains, Minds and Machines (CBMM), bioRxiv, 2015-04-26)
Is visual cortex made up of general-purpose information processing machinery, or does it consist of a collection of specialized modules? If prior knowledge, acquired from learning a set of objects is only transferable to ...
How Important is Weight Symmetry in Backpropagation?
(Center for Brains, Minds and Machines (CBMM), arXiv, 2015-11-29)
Gradient backpropagation (BP) requires symmetric feedforward and feedback connections—the same weights must be used for forward and backward passes. This “weight transport problem” [1] is thought to be one of the main ...
