Extremal Contours: Gradient-driven contours for compact visual attribution

Reza Karimzadeh, Albert Alonso, Frans Zdyb +2

Faithful yet compact explanations for vision models remain a challenge, as commonly used dense perturbation masks are often fragmented and overfitted, needing careful post-processi…

Local Clustering and Global Spreading of Receptors for Optimal Spatial Gradient Sensing

Albert Alonso, Robert G. Endres, Julius B. Kirkegaard

Spatial information from cell-surface receptors is crucial for processes that require signal processing and sensing of the environment. Here, we investigate the optimal placement o…
