A crucial step in understanding visual input is its organization into meaningful components, in particular object contours and partially occluded background structures. This requires that all contours are assigned to either the foreground or the back...
Deep convolutional networks (DCNNs) are achieving previously unseen performance in object classification, raising questions about whether DCNNs operate similarly to human vision. In biological vision, shape is arguably the most important cue for reco...
In crowding, perception of a target deteriorates in the presence of nearby elements. As the entire stimulus configuration across large parts of the visual field influences crowding and not just nearby elements, low-level explanations, such as local p...
Deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) trained on visual objects have shown intriguing ability to predict some response properties of visual cortical neurons. However, the factors (e.g., if the model is trained or not, receptive field size) and co...
"Chemistry of Concepts" and "Historical Sense". On Philosophical Concept Formation. The question concerning concepts and their relations to objects and words has had a long and controversial history. Recently, it is challenged by an anew turn towards...
