This project took over a decade to complete and I could not be more proud to be part of it...congrats @martinamorea.bsky.social! We show visual perception relies on time-consuming grouping mechanisms. Hope you enjoy the thread!

#Vision is often described as hierarchical and feedforward, progressing from low-level features to high-level representations. But are the early #feedforward stages truly the most essential for #perception?
Let us show you why not

Every scientist, long before they were a scientist, was a little kid who stood in front of a fish tank or stared up at the stars or turned over a rock to look at the bugs underneath and said “wow”. On the best days, working in science still feels like that.
