I have been meaning to write a post about a preprint that I'm pretty excited about: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... In neuroscience we often assume that we can learn something general about “the brain” using different species. But is this true? Do monkeys even see the world the way we do?
On the left, an image of a rhesus macaque looking towards its left, and on the right, an AI-generated zoomed-out rendering of a human in the same pose. Both are looking.

Excited to share our preprint! w/ @martinhebart.bsky.social To understand how primates visually process objects in the world, we rely on both research in human and macaque IT. But what representations of object space are actually shared between them? biorxiv.org/content/10.6... Quick thread 🧵

Shared and Distinct High-Dimensional Object Spaces in Human and Macaque Inferotemporal Cortex
Human and macaque studies of inferotemporal cortex (IT) have shaped our understanding of object vision, yet the extent of their representational alignment and the precise nature of this correspondence...

New preprint w/ Malin Styrnal & @martinhebart.bsky.social Have you ever computed noise ceilings to understand how well a model performs? We wrote a clarifying note on a subtle and common misapplication that can make models appear quite a lot better than they are. osf.io/preprints/ps...

Giving an introductory lecture on DNNs and their use in CogNeuro tomorrow, and had to turn a highlight from @cogcompneuro.bsky.social 2024 into this.

Reduced confidence associated with aging increases information seeking under uncertainty, whereas confidence alterations associated with symptoms of psychopathology do not. Out now w/ Greta Mohr & @robince.bsky.social. #neuroskyence #compneuro #PsychSciSky: rdcu.be/dSPdz

Great new paper by Yuening Yan & Philippe Schyns and colleagues. Uses MEG and very sophisticated analyses to demonstrate that the prediction of specific stimulus features, rather than coarse categories, biases perception. #neuroskyence #compneurosky

Strength of predicted information content in the brain biases decision behavior
Yan et al. reveal the visual contents that the brain predicts before the stimulus is shown. They show that these contents flow down from ventral to occipital cortex, where they are lateralized. Criti...

Lovely study linking individual differences in confidence and information seeking to ageing and mental health - interesting to see underconfidence with age can be ameliorated with greater info seeking - by @chrisbenwell.bsky.social and team psyarxiv.com/vc7ye/

🌟First post over here, which I'm very happy to use to share a new paper in TICS with Angela Radulescu & Kara Emery. 🌟 We review work taking an approach we refer to as "naturalistic reinforcement learning", which uses more naturalistic approaches to study learning and decision-making.

Humans possess a remarkable ability to make decisions within real-world environments that are expansive, complex, and multidimensional. Human cognitiv…
