neuroAI comparisons of ANNs to brains do have a range of problems. Even more than I had realized. And I was worried before: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

incredible resource for aspiring (and indeed existing!) computational cognitive neuroscientists
Excited to share our preprint! We show that primary visual cortex is modulated by global predictability. This effect depended on higher level brain region (area ACa), and better explained classic oddball paradigms better than βlocalβ context effects (i.e., recent stimulus history). 1/3
This paper had a pretty shocking headline result (40% of voxels!), so I dug into it, and I think it is wrong. Essentially: they compare two noisy measures and find that about 40% of voxels have different sign between the two. I think this is just noise!
This is a truly incredible thread
Good for you Imran! (I took over the New Mancunian from you many moons ago :) if you remember!) all power to you, good luck

New paper! A biomimetic model, NOT trained on neural data, eerily matched the recordings and uncovered a new neural property. You donβt see that very often.

This is your brain on Ritalin. Got your attention? Stimulant medications like Ritalin (methylphenidate) do, but not in the way you might think. They don't act directly on the brainβs attention systems! Find out what's really happening in @cellpress.bsky.social. doi.org/10.1016/j.ce...
This was accepted for publication!
Thank you @schizbulletin.bsky.social
