Previous work (M.I. Sereno, 1989; cf. M.E. Sereno, 1987) showed that a feedforward network with area V1-like input-layer units and a Hebb rule can develop area MT-like second laye...
Abstract— The optimal model parameters of a kernel machine are typically given by the solution of a convex optimisation problem with a single global optimum. Obtaining the best p...
This paper presents a syntax-driven approach to question answering, specifically the answer-sentence selection problem for short-answer questions. Rather than using syntactic fea...
We investigate a biologically motivated approach to fast visual classification, directly inspired by the recent work [13]. Specifically, trading-off biological accuracy for comput...
In macaque inferotemporal cortex (IT), neurons have been found to respond selectively to complex shapes while showing broad tuning (“invariance”) with respect to stimulus tran...
