- Reposted by CBS CoCoNUT🧠 New preprint: Why do deep neural networks predict brain responses so well? We find a striking dissociation: it’s not shared object recognition. Alignment is driven by sensitivity to texture-like local statistics. 📊 Study: n=57, 624k trials, 5 models doi.org/10.1101/2025...

- Reposted by CBS CoCoNUTNew Open dataset alert: 🧠 Introducing "Spacetop" – a massive multimodal fMRI dataset that bridges naturalistic and experimental neuroscience! N = 101 x 6 hours each = 606 functional iso-hours combining movies, pain, faces, theory-of-mind and other cognitive tasks! 🧵below
- Reposted by CBS CoCoNUTWhat makes humans similar or different to AI? In a paper out in @natmachintell.nature.com led by @florianmahner.bsky.social & @lukasmut.bsky.social, w/ Umut Güclü, we took a deep look at the factors underlying their representational alignment, with surprising results. www.nature.com/articles/s42...
- Reposted by CBS CoCoNUTWe're happy to announce the Berlin Consciousness Symposium, an in-person event bringing together expert speakers to discuss new trends in the neuroscience of consciousness. Date: 3rd of July 2025 at @freieuniversitaet.bsky.social @ccnberlin.bsky.social www.ewi-psy.fu-berlin.de/en/psycholog...
- Reposted by CBS CoCoNUTI'm super happy to see our project on topographic neural network models of visual processing out in @nathumbehav.nature.com! Have a look at @zejinlu.bsky.social's thread for details.
- Now out in Nature Human Behaviour @nathumbehav.nature.com : “End-to-end topographic networks as models of cortical map formation and human visual behaviour”. Please check our NHB link: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
