Vision Deep Neural Networks and Large Language Models complement each other in predicting EEG responses to images, providing a more accurate model of the time course of visuo-semantic processing in the human brain.

arxiv.org/abs/2506.19497
The time course of visuo-semantic representations in the human brain is captured by combining vision and language models
The human visual system provides us with a rich and meaningful percept of the world, transforming retinal signals into visuo-semantic representations. For a model of these representations, here we lev...

(6/7) Out-of-distribution generalization tests on NSD-synthetic reveal differences between brain models that are not detected by in-distribution tests => self-supervised deep neural networks better explain neural responses than their task-supervised counterparts.

NSD-synthetic enables strict out-of-distribution generalization tests critical for the development of more robust models of visual processing and the formulation of more accurate theories of human vision.

In our new @commspsychol.bsky.social review, we explore how humans adjust learning to different types of uncertainty, why biases arise, and what this reveals about learning and psychiatric conditions.
