explicitly interpretable model of visual WM informed by decades of theoretical work outperforms neural networks on 40 million data points, using many fewer parameters. really cool approach and encouraging finding about the continued relevance of good old-fashioned cogsci
Excited to share our new work in @NatureComms . Introducing a "comprehensive exploration" model that uncovers all mechanisms of visual working memory in one framework, built from a single large-scale controlled experiment.
