CNNs and Transformers Perceive Hybrid Images Similar to Humans
Ali Borji
Hybrid images is a technique to generate images with two interpretations that change as a function of viewing distance. It has been utilized to study multiscale processing of images by the human visual system. Using 63,000 hybrid images across 10 fruit categories, here we show that predictions of deep learning vision models qualitatively matches with the human perception of these images. Our results provide yet another evidence in support of the hypothesis that Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Transformers are good at modeling the feedforward sweep of information in the ventral stream of visual cortex. Code and data is available at https://github.com/aliborji/hybrid_images.git.
