Human-like Behavior and Neural Representations Emerge in a Goal-driven Model of Overt Visual Search for Natural Objects

Motahareh Pourrahimi, Irina Rish, Pouya Bashivan · Bernstein Conference 2024

Visual search, the act of finding a target among multiple visually presented items, is a key paradigm in studying visual attention. While much is known about the brain networks underlying visual search, our understanding of the neural computations driving this behavior is limited, resulting in challenges in simulating such behavior in-silico. To address this gap, we developed an image-computable general-architecture visual search model (GVSM). We trained an artificial neural network to perform naturalistic visual search [Fig. A-B] using the same stimulus configuration as human psychophysics ex
