So happy that our paper on event segmentation in large language models is now out in Behavior Research Methods! tinyurl.com/2j76882b With @mtoneva.bsky.social, @ptoncompmemlab.bsky.social, and Manoj Kumar, we show that LLMs can segment narrative text into meaningful events similarly to humans.

🧠👁️ Our MindEye2 preprint is out! We reconstruct seen images from fMRI activity using only 1 hour of training data. This is possible by first pretraining a shared-subject model using other people's data, and then fine-tuning on a held-out subject with only 1 hr of data. arxiv.org/abs/2403.11207

Competing memories may be integrated or differentiated based on how much their representations co-activate. Using real-time fMRI neurofeedback, this study finds that high co-activation of memories in visual cortex leads to less memory discriminability in hippocampus. #PsychSciSky #neuroskyence

Now out in Cognitive Science! We use GPT-2 to show that Bayesian surprise, which tracks changes in the content and confidence of predictions, accounts for human event boundaries in a narrative better than surprisal, which only tracks the predicted probability of individual words tinyurl.com/kd9dpub8
