Reverse engineering object recognition
… This thesis presents a collection of work from human psychophysics, monkey electrophysiology, and computational modelling in an effort to reverse-engineer the key computational components that enable this amazing ability in the primate visual system.

Characterizing Image Recognition Difficulty in Artificial and Biological Visual Processing
… whether these models have achieved parity with human object recognition ability and whether we can consider this problem solved. However, these models continue to fail in real-world applications and in un-human-like ways creating a disparity between the performance that benchmarks report and the …

Models of generalization in motor control
Motor learning for humans is based on the capacity of the central nervous system (CNS) to perform computation and build an internal model for a task. This thesis investigates the CNS's ability to generalize a learned motor skill throughout neighboring spatial locations, its ability to divide the …

Neural coding of time-varying interaural time differences and its relation to perception
… Binaural sluggishness has been proposed based on human psychophysics but never validated neuro physiologically in the IC. Second, we show that most neurons are unable to synchronize to the time-varying ITD at speeds where humans no longer perceive fluctuations. Instead, neurons exhibit a change in …
