Title: Foundation models of the brain Abstract: You … your memories and ambitions, your sense of personal identity and free will, are in fact no more than the behavior of a vast…

Title: Constraints of efficient neural computation Abstract: Neural systems adapt to the statistical structure of the environment to support behavior. While it is generally recognized that such adaptation is subject…

Title: Are Vision-Language Models Checking or Looking? Abstract: Today’s AI vision systems are trained on vast amounts of data, yet it remains unclear whether they simply retrieve memorized answers or actively…

Title and Abstract: TBD

General website Title: Integrating Past and Present in Continual Learning Abstract: Continual learning aims to bridge the gap between typical human and machine-learning environments. The continual setting does not have separate training and testing phases, and instead models are evaluated online while learning novel concepts and tasks. The most capable current AI systems struggle to…
