Human visual neurons rely on event-driven, energy-efficient spikes for communication, while silicon image sensors do not. The energy-budget mismatch between biological systems and machine vision technology has inspired the development of artificial v...
Many cognitive problems can be decomposed into series of subproblems that are solved sequentially by the brain. When subproblems are solved, relevant intermediate results need to be stored by neurons and propagated to the next subproblem, until the o...

How does the brain process natural visual stimuli to make a decision? Imagine driving through fog. An object looms ahead. What do you do? This decision requires not only identifying the object but also choosing an action based on your decision confid...
The ability to understand and manipulate numbers and quantities emerges during childhood, but the mechanism through which humans acquire and develop this ability is still poorly understood. We explore this question through a model, assuming that the ...
Object recognition and making a choice regarding the recognized object is pivotal for most animals. This process in the brain contains information representation and decision making steps which both take different amount of times for different object...

Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) have become one of the most prominent next-generation computational models owing to their biological plausibility, low power consumption, and the potential for neuromorphic hardware implementation. Among the various met...
Whenever a visual scene is cast onto the retina, much of it will appear degraded due to poor resolution in the periphery; moreover, optical defocus can cause blur in central vision. However, the pervasiveness of blurry or degraded input is typically ...
Cognitive neuroscience aims to develop computational models that can accurately predict and explain neural responses to sensory inputs in the cortex. Recent studies attempt to leverage the representation power of deep neural networks (DNNs) to predic...

Modeling neuron responses to stimuli can shed light on next-generation technologies such as brain-chip interfaces. Furthermore, high-performing models can serve to help formulate hypotheses and reveal the mechanisms underlying neural responses. Here ...
Mental representations of familiar categories are composed of visual and semantic information. Disentangling the contributions of visual and semantic information in humans is challenging because they are intermixed in mental representations. Deep neu...
