AI uncovers hidden mechanisms of covert attention and emergent neuron types

Shifting focus on a visual scene without moving our eyes - think driving, or reading a room for the reaction to your joke - is a behavior known as covert attention. We do it all the time, but little ...

AI helps explain how covert attention works and uncovers new neuron types

Importantly, they found several CNN "neuron" types that had response properties never before highlighted. For example, most studies focus on how neurons are excited by attention, but they found units ...
