For almost ten years, researchers from MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) have conducted studies to understand why some images are more memorable than others. The team used magnetoencephalography (MEG), which records timing of brain activity, and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), which identifies active brain regions, to discern when and where in…
MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) researchers, in collaboration with the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab, have developed a new metric, the "minimum viewing time" (MVT), to measure the difficulty of recognizing an image. The researchers aimed to close the gap between the performance of deep learning-based AI models and humans in recognizing and…
