Adaptive Sparseness Using Jeffreys Prior
In this paper we introduce a new sparseness inducing prior which does not involve any (hyper)parameters that need to be adjusted or estimated. Although other applications are poss...

Probabilistic principles in unsupervised learning of visual structure: human data and a model
To find out how the representations of structured visual objects depend on the co-occurrence statistics of their constituents, we exposed subjects to a set of composite images wit...

Linking Motor Learning to Function Approximation: Learning in an Unlearnable Force Field
Reaching movements require the brain to generate motor commands that rely on an internal model of the task's dynamics. Here we consider the errors that subjects make early in...
