Bad neuroscientist, worse psychologist, pretend engineer. Current phd student at Stanford. Interested in how humans and machines encode and read out visual representations.
Nice paper. Curious if you all have done similar analyses on the things brain data - fitting lower dimensional embeddings with simulated triplet judgements based on responses and trying to interpret? Don't think I've seen it in any of the other papers but maybe I missed it

My understanding (via osmosis from lab mates/advisor) is that information as early as V1 is accessible and that readout is quite flexible - e.g. www.nature.com/articles/s41... (imaging) and openreview.net/forum?id=ec7... (behavior)
A flexible readout mechanism of human sensory representations - Nature Communications
It is known that attention can modify the brain's representations of sensory stimuli to enhance features of importance. Here, the authors show that flexible readout of cortical representations is also...

Did you partition human experts by field? A cognitive neuroscientist who scores 100% on that category, but chance on the rest, would look pretty bad overall. Is it the case that "neuroscience" is simply too broad a field? Sorry if I missed this in the paper somewhere..
