Unsupervised object discovery is commonly interpreted as the task of localizing and/or categorizing objects in visual data without the need for labeled examples. While current object recognition methods have proven highly effective for…
Often in language and other areas of cognition, whether two components of an object are identical or not determines if it is well formed. We call such constraints identity effects. When developing a system to learn well-formedness from…
Beyond representing the external world, humans also represent their own cognitive processes. In the context of perception, this metacognition helps us identify unreliable percepts, such as when we recognize that we are seeing an illusion.…
