Children acquire object category representations from their everyday experiences in the first few years of life.
What do the inputs to this learning process actually look like?
New preprint! arxiv.org/abs/2605.14990
Children acquire object category representations from their everyday experiences in the first few years of life. What do the inputs to this learning process look like? We analyzed first-person videos ...arxiv.org
How would you categorise these images? What features would you use? Preprint just went live looking at how we make sense of things we’ve never seen before (i.e., drawings just like these!). If that sounds interesting, read on or check out the preprint: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

We are still hiring for our computational focus lab coordinator position!
If you have a computational / software engineering background and are looking for more research experience before applying to graduate school, this would be a great fit.

What did we find? First, we found that a few categories dominate — across all domains! Children see some categories much more often than others, replicating prior work.
