Prof. Kreiman gives a lecture at UC Berkeley
09/18/2024 Successes and challenges in computational models of vision We now have powerful computer vision algorithms that can segment scenes, label objects, and recognize actions. It is tempting to use these algorithms as models of visual processing in biological brains. I will provide an overview of some of the successes in using neural network models to partially describe visual behavior and predict neuronal responses in the visual system of monkeys and humans, focusing on the ventral stream associated with object recognition.…
