Wow. In 24 hours, we have gone from zero to 4.4K followers, that‘s crazy. Thank you for a warm welcome and excellent tips. I gave up on replying to all of you after someone pointed out that I was spamming thousands of people – sorry! Also, please do not read too much into it if we do not respond or take a long time responding, we are a busy bunch and may simply sometimes miss your post or messages. Mastodon allows long posts so I am taking advantage of that, so here are a few things that you may – or may not – want to know.

—Who are we?—

Research in the Icelandic Vision Lab (visionlab.is) focuses on all things visual, with a major emphasis on higher-level or “cognitive” aspects of visual perception. It is co-run by five Principal Investigators: Árni Gunnar Ásgeirsson, Sabrina Hansmann-Roth, Árni Kristjánsson, Inga María Ólafsdóttir, and Heida Maria Sigurdardottir. Here on Mastodon, you will most likely be interacting with me – Heida – but other PIs and potentially other lab members (visionlab.is/people) may occasionally also post here as this is a joint account. If our posts are stupid and/or annoying, I will however almost surely be responsible!

—What do we do?—

Current and/or past research at IVL has looked at several visual processes, including , , , , , , and the role of / effects in . Some of our work concerns the basic properties of the workings of the typical adult . We have also studied the perceptual capabilities of several unique populations, including children, synesthetes, professional athletes, people with anxiety disorders, blind people, and dyslexic readers. We focus on but also make use of other techniques including , , and

—Why are we here?—

We are mostly here to interact with other researchers in our field, including graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and principal investigators. This means that our activity on Mastodon may sometimes be quite niche. This can include boosting posts from others on research papers, conferences, or work opportunities in specialized fields, partaking in discussions on debates in our field, data analysis, or the scientific review process. Science communication and outreach are hugely important, but this account is not about that as such. So we take no offence if that means that you will unfollow us, that is perfectly alright :)

—But will there still sometimes be stupid memes as promised?—

Yes. They may or may not be funny, but they will be stupid.

AI-based drifting? Yes! In this paper the authors use Vehicle Physics Pro with a deep neural network to drift in arbitrary trajectories.

VPP is the reference [16].

Working with , and data. Also research on and designs. I understand . You can check me out on Google scholar and LinkedIn.
Happy to make new friends here. Also, love .

Another reason (among many) why I became disenchanted with and had to “invent” .

Warren Sturgis McCulloch, the co-inventor of the first computational model of a that was the precursor for and , uses a racial slur to incorrectly suggest that Cybernetics is somehow the result of the “interbreeding” between the Natural and the Artificial in the preface he wrote for Gordon Pask’s book:

@cloy I want to follow this thread. I'd be interested, too. I'm interested in -D and of course ++ (I don't know if it will take that last tag)

I got interested in when I learned about . At that time the computing resources available were limited compared to today. Now we have but it is widely agreed (including by me) that they do not replace natural . can be used as an application technology, but how do we use to understand ?

Scientists Increasingly Can’t Explain How AI Works

Deep neural networks (DNN)—made up of layers and layers of processing systems trained on human-created data to mimic the neural networks of our brains—often seem to mirror not just human intelligence but also human inexplicability
