https://unireps.org Discover why, when and how distinct learning processes yield similar representations, and the degree to which these can be unified.
Starting in 30mins! Do not miss it if you are interested in DINOv3 and its representation alignment with human brain!

Up next at UniReps × UCL NeuroAI: two short talks 👇
🎙️ Loek van Rossem (Gatsby, UCL): "When Representations Align: Universality in Representation Learning Dynamics"
🎙️ Austin Meek (MLATS / Univ. of Delaware): "Inducing Human-like Biases in Moral Reasoning Language Models"
#UniReps #NeuroAI #UCL
Doors open! The UniReps × UCL NeuroAI Meetup starts now at the Sainsbury Wellcome Centre (Ground Floor Seminar Room). At 10:30, Iris Groen (UvA) kicks us off: “Alignment of visual representations in AI and human brains: beyond object recognition.” Follow for updates. #UniReps #NeuroAI #UCL

🧠✨ How do AI models and the human brain align?
On 8th September, join us for two exciting talks by young researchers from the UniReps community 🌍🤖

👩🔬 About the speaker:
Dr. @irisgroen.bsky.social is Assistant Professor at the Video & Image Sense lab (UvA, Amsterdam). Her work bridges AI & cognitive neuroscience, studying how the brain turns light into meaning.
🌐 www.irisgroen.com
4/4
Dr. Groen’s talk explores how we can push beyond object recognition:
🔹 Scene affordance perception
🔹 Video perception
🔹 Data-driven alignment via brain-guided image generation.
A new step toward AI that mirrors real-world human perception.

For years, deep neural networks (DNNs) amazed scientists by predicting neural responses in the visual cortex. 👀
But most studies only tested this on static, isolated objects.
Real life? It's way more complex. 🌆🎥
