🌍 Join our Slack workspace to interact with our community, and join the other teams in our challenges.

📢 Deadline extension for our Sensorium competition to Oct. 15! One more month to join us in finding the best predictive model for neural activity in the mouse primary visual cortex!.

@patrickmineault @KordingLab @kendmil @xaqlab @JamesJDiCarlo @dyamins @jpillowtime @BernsteinNeuro @TimKietzmann @jakhmack @CellTypist @bethgelab @KonstantinWille.

Thanks to funding from @ERC_Research, @dfg_public, @NIH, @BMBF_Bund, @IARPAnews, who supported this work. 7/7.

Joint organization with labs of @AToliasLab/@AndreasTolias, @sinzlab and @alxecker. Also including technical support from deeplake @activeloopai, @gwdg, @uniGoettingen. 6/7.

Participating is easy: We provide the raw data as well as ready to use PyTorch dataloaders and code for baseline models in our starting kit here: 5/7.

The competition is already underway — join to find the best performing model to predict mouse V1 responses to dynamic stimuli! For more information about #Sensorium2023, check our website and follow.@SensoriumComp 4/7.

In addition to the main track for predicting responses to natural videos, this year we test how well models generalize in a bonus track with out-of-domain videos. 3/7

This year’s competition includes a brand new, large-scale dataset with responses of over >38,000 neurons in mouse V1 to hundreds of videos 📽️, replacing the static images from 2022. How you handle the new temporal dimension ⌛️ will be a major part of this year’s challenge! 2/7

Do you want to understand how the brain 🧠 dynamically processes visual stimuli? Join #Sensorium2023 at #NeurIPS2023, where your dynamic model competes 🏆 to predict tens of thousands of neurons in early mouse visual system! 🐭 1/7
