Improving out-of-distribution generalization by mimicking the human visual diet

Spandan’s paper was accepted at NeuroAI @ NeurIPS 2024

In this work Spandan shows that a careful account of the visual input statistics that humans encounter during learning can help improve machine learning algorithms.
