🔊 dear BSKY people, I'm looking for a chatter, blabber, cocktail party background audio generator that has hopefully been used for research before. any tip or recommendation is appreciated. reposts are also appreciated as they may bring this post closer to someone that knows 🙌

well on time for my bi-yearly post I'm sharing the final version of this very cool work we started with @cjungerius.bsky.social @smfleming.bsky.social @svangaal.bsky.social @fahrenfort.bsky.social in 2021, when I was young and full of hope. Now out in @natcomms.nature.com 1/11

The act of detecting a stimulus contaminates measures of conscious experience with decision biases - Nature Communications

A central challenge in consciousness research is determining whether people truly experience a stimulus. Here, the authors show that context biases traditional detection measures, whereas continuous r...

Interesting convergence: The trick that made predictive self-supervised vision models work seems to be what the brain was doing all along w/ @predictivebrain.bsky.social: visual cortex is most sensitive to high-level prediction errors -- even in V1 Now published: journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol...

Higher-level spatial prediction in natural vision across mouse visual cortex

Author summary How does the brain make sense of the constant stream of visual information? A popular theory suggests the brain is not a passive receiver but an active predictor, constantly generating ...

New preprint, w/ @predictivebrain.bsky.social ! we've found that visual cortex, even when just viewing natural scenes, predicts *higher-level* visual features The aligns with developments in ML, but challenges some assumptions about early sensory cortex www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

To celebrate the defence of my PhD, and thanks to @ibbamsterdam.bsky.social, I will host a symposium titled "Vision as prediction: learning, action, and biases" on June 6. Program, registration and more information here: bit.ly/43reOgR

⚠️ Come see our new preprint, in which we (@degeelab.bsky.social, Jasper Zantvoord, @psterzer.bsky.social, @fahrenfort.bsky.social & @svangaal.bsky.social) show that phasic (task-evoked) and tonic (baseline) arousal distinctly shape human decision bias! (1/6) dx.doi.org/10.21203/rs....
