Sorry, I did not cover the motor system in the course.
Here is one cool example: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S089662731... And this one I have not read but is by reputable people in a good journal and looks fun:…
As the Marr intro chapter explains so beautifully, there are many levels of analysis in cognitive science and cognitive neuroscience. Units in deep nets are very different from actual neurons, and the backprop methods…
It is really the intro and first chapter of Marr's book that is still totally current. The rest of the book is brilliant but less representative of current thinking.
It depends what you mean by "understand" :-) On many interpretations, we understand none of it!
So glad to hear it, thank you. Do let me know if you encounter bits that are not clear or if you see ways the lectures could be improved. BTW the lectures were all originally 1 hour and 25 minutes - I just broke them…
This is not a course per se, but there are a lot of good, cutting edge videos by major players in the field here: https://cbmm.mit.edu/videos
Sounds like you got it, more or less. Current views of how object recognition works in the brain are a lot like current deep net models of object recognition (e.g. Alexnet and beyond): a heirarchical series of…
Thank you! It means so much to me that some people are appreciating these lectures. I knocked myself out all spring preparing this course, and it was quite a gut punch to read my course evaluations a few days ago, which…
Hi all- I am so psyched to see that some are finding the videos interesting! Do send comments if you have them. cheers, Nancy
