A central challenge in face perception research is to understand how neurons encode face identities. This challenge has not been met largely due to the lack of simultaneous access to the entire face processing neural network and the lack of a compreh...

Understanding the neural basis of the remarkable human cognitive capacity to learn novel concepts from just one or a few sensory experiences constitutes a fundamental problem. We propose a simple, biologically plausible, mathematically tractable, and...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Animal modeling of infectious diseases such as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is important for exploration of natural history, understanding of pathogenesis, and evaluation of countermeasures. Preclinical studies enable...
Deep neural networks (DNNs) optimized for visual tasks learn representations that align layer depth with the hierarchy of visual areas in the primate brain. One interpretation of this finding is that hierarchical representations are necessary to accu...
In the visual system of primates, image information propagates across successive cortical areas, and there is also local feedback within an area and long-range feedback across areas. Recent findings suggest that the resulting temporal dynamics of neu...

The development of artificial intelligence has posed a challenge to machine vision based on conventional complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) circuits owing to its high latency and inefficient power consumption originating from the data shu...
A core problem in visual object learning is using a finite number of images of a new object to accurately identify that object in future, novel images. One longstanding, conceptual hypothesis asserts that this core problem is solved by adult brains t...
Birth-death (BD) models are widely used in combination with species phylogenies to study past diversification dynamics. Current inference approaches typically rely on likelihood-based methods. These methods are not generalizable, as a new likelihood ...
This paper provides a comprehensive review of the use of computational bioacoustics as well as signal and speech processing techniques in the analysis of primate vocal communication. We explore the potential implications of machine learning and deep ...
Inferences made about objects via vision, such as rapid and accurate categorization, are core to primate cognition despite the algorithmic challenge posed by varying viewpoints and scenes. Until recently, the brain mechanisms that support these capab...
