The proliferation of deep artificial neural network models has given rise to widespread interest in comparing such models to biological sensory systems. Model metamers – stimuli that produce the same responses in a model as a natural stimulus – have been proposed as a powerful test of the extent to which a model replicates the invariances of a biological sensory system. However, it has remained unclear whether discrepancies evident from metamers are the same as those identified by other model comparison benchmarks, and whether modifications that have been introduced to address other well-known
