Deep neural networks uncover what the brain likes to see — ScienceDaily

Researchers built deep artificial neural networks that can accurately predict the neural responses produced by a biological brain to arbitrary visual stimuli. These networks can be thought of as a ‘virtual avatar’ of a population of biological neurons, which can be used to dissect the neural mechanisms of sensation.
