attention, texture perception, deep neural network model
Akshay Jagadeesh is a 4th year PhD student studying cognitive neuroscience, advised by Justin Gardner. His research examines how attention enhances the resolution of visual perception, with a particular emphasis on the neural representation of visual textures. In the future, Akshay hopes to continue to build more sophisticated biologically-plausible deep neural network models of visual perception that account for cognitive factors such as attention.
