Popis: |
Artificial neural networks have realized incredible successes at image recognition, but the underlying mechanism of visual space representation remains a huge mystery. Grid cells (2014 Nobel Prize) in the entorhinal cortex support a periodic representation as a metric for coding space. Here, we develop a self-supervised convolutional neural network to perform visual space location, leading to the emergence of single-slit diffraction and double-slit interference patterns of waves. Our discoveries reveal the nature of CNN encoding visual space to a certain extent. CNN is no longer a black box in terms of visual spatial encoding, it is interpretable. Our findings indicate that the periodicity property of waves provides a space metric, suggesting a general role of spatial coordinate frame in artificial neural networks. |
