Model-Guided Microstimulation Steers Primate Visual Behavior
Johannes Mehrer, Ben Lonnqvist, Anna Mitola +3
Brain stimulation is a powerful tool for understanding cortical function and holds promise for therapeutic interventions in neuropsychiatric disorders. Initial visual prosthetics a…
Inducing Dyslexia in Vision Language Models
Melika Honarmand, Ayati Sharma, Badr AlKhamissi +2
Dyslexia, a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent reading difficulties, is often linked to reduced activity of the visual word form area (VWFA) in the ventral occ…
Evaluating Contrast Localizer for Identifying Causal Units in Social & Mathematical Tasks in Language Models
Yassine Jamaa, Badr AlKhamissi, Satrajit Ghosh +1
This work adapts a neuroscientific contrast localizer to pinpoint causally relevant units for Theory of Mind (ToM) and mathematical reasoning tasks in large language models (LLMs)…
Mixture of Cognitive Reasoners: Modular Reasoning with Brain-Like Specialization
Badr AlKhamissi, C. Nicolò De Sabbata, Greta Tuckute +3
Human cognitive behavior arises from the interaction of specialized brain networks dedicated to distinct functions, such as language, logic, and social reasoning. Inspired by this…
Contour Integration Underlies Human-Like Vision
Ben Lonnqvist, Elsa Scialom, Abdulkadir Gokce +3
Despite the tremendous success of deep learning in computer vision, models still fall behind humans in generalizing to new input distributions. Existing benchmarks do not investiga…
From Language to Cognition: How LLMs Outgrow the Human Language Network
Badr AlKhamissi, Greta Tuckute, Yingtian Tang +3
Large language models (LLMs) exhibit remarkable similarity to neural activity in the human language network. However, the key properties of language shaping brain-like representati…
