Emergent cues underlying the perception of shape, colour, and material

该项目的目标是识别视觉系统用于提取物体的三维结构和材料组成的信息。该项目旨在产生对支持这些感知能力的信息的高级理解，并推进我们对这些信息如何从自然场景中学习的理解。这项工作的发现预计将有助于我们对人类视觉系统的理解，并提供深入了解所需的信息，以促进深度神经网络（机器学习）的发展，这些网络利用与人类相同的信息来指导我们的行为并识别物体和材料。

This goal of this project is to identify the information the visual system uses to extract the three-dimensional structure and material composition of objects. This project aims to generate an advanced understanding of the information that supports these perceptual abilities and to advance our understanding how this information is learned from exposure to natural scenes. The findings of this work are expected to benefit our understanding of the human visual system, and to provide insights into the information needed to advance the development of deep neural networks (machine learning) that exploit the same information used by humans to guide our behavior and recognize objects and materials.
