The laboratory addresses a variety of basic issues in the analysis and representation of visual imagery. 1) construction of mathematical theories for the representation of visual information, 2) development of functional models for biological visual processing, and 3) creation of novel algorithms for image processing and computer vision applications.

Our goal is to devise learning rules that can develop a feature-detector hierarchy similar to that proposed by Fukushima et al. (1983) in order to recognize objects independent of location, scale, or orientation.

What are the mechanisms of learning and memory? How are actions and experiences encoded in the activity patterns of neurons in the brain? In the Wilson Lab we are addressing these questions through multineuron recording from the hippocampus and other brain areas of rats and mice during active behavior.

Builds mathematical and computational models of neural processing, with a particular emphasis on representation and learning. The main focus is on reinforcement learning and unsupervised learning, covering the ways that animals come to choose appropriate actions in the face of rewards and punishments, and the ways and goals of the process by which they come to form neural representations of the world. The models are informed and constrained by neurobiological, psychological and ethological data.
