Parametric neural control reveals hidden differences among vision models that predict neural responses equally well. The method synthesizes images to drive specific firing rates and compares model predictions to actual neural modulation.
Key points
Hundreds of distinct models achieve nearly identical prediction scores on natural images.
ResNet50 encoding axis achieved r = 0.87 on calibration, r = 0.95 on held-out images, but r = 0.28 on axis-aligned accentuation images.
