Super excited to share this work! #neurips2024 #unireps
🚀At @NeurIPSConf tomorrow? Don't miss @nikolasmcneal and @MainakDeb19 's poster at the @unireps workshop on the adversarial sensitivity of vision encoding models of fMRI responses! A brief teaser about what they find.

This is terrible news. I owe so much to Professor Braumoeller. He introduced me to research and offered invaluable guidance and resources to a clueless undergrad. I’ll forever be grateful.
Our dear colleague, Bear Braumoeller, passed away this morning in Oslo after a sudden, brief illness. Words cannot express our feelings of profound sadness. As we know more, we will post plans for events in his memory.

@HoagyCunningham @alfcnz @geoffreyhinton I imagine the design is heavily inspired by predictive coding, and it is possibly a rudimentary work toward GLOM (Hinton, 2021)

Our work adds to the rich literature in music cognition and signal processing which explores the relationship between predictability and preference. Code for our project can be found here:
