A new study by @marlijnterbekke @judithholler et al. shows that listeners can better anticipate when a current speaker will stop talking when they can see them, especially their torso, hands and arms, suggesting a beneficial role for hand gestures. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Visualization of the experimental conditions, in which either the speaker’s full body was visible, the eyes were masked, the head was masked or the upper body (i.e., torso + arms) was masked. This visualization was created using AI (DALL·E 3). For the real stimuli, see Figure 5 in the paper.

I’m presenting my poster in session B tonight @SNLmtg #SNL2022 (B19)! If you are also curious why activations in some parts of Transformer language models seem more similar to human brain activity than others, then I hope to see you there 😄 neurolang.org/presentation/?…

Our paper showing how scene context *impairs* perception of congruent objects is finally published (OA) in @PsychScience! Outline of mechanism in graphic, RTing 🧵 for preprint, paper: doi.org/10.1177/095679762110…. With @flodlan @MariusPeelen. @DondersInst @Radboud_Uni @NWO_SSH

Preprint time! Visual scene context should always *aid* the perception of objects within that scene, right? Wrong! @flodlan @MariusPeelen and I show when & why context *hinders* perception in two online behavioural studies. Highlights below 🧵👇 1/7

Just posted a new 🔥 preprint 🔥 online: 'The "Bayesian" brain, with a bit less Bayes'. Theoretical, some might say speculative stuff; comments very welcome! #openscience Thread here 👇 arxiv.org/abs/2111.09063 1/11

The "Bayesian" brain, with a bit less Bayes

The idea that the brain is a probabilistic (Bayesian) inference machine, continuously trying to figure out the hidden causes of its inputs, has become very influential in cognitive (neuro)science...

SO excited that this project is officially published 🥳 it was a long road for this paper, but I'm really proud of this #Lowlands collaboration with @lindadrijvers on multimodal (face, hands, speech) adaption of communicative signals to disruptive noise rdcu.be/cuREr
