  1. 🧠 👀 Fascinating new study: Pre-training #NeuralNetworks with spontaneous retinal waves — those endogenous activity patterns in the developing eye — significantly improves motion prediction in natural scenes.

    May, Dauphin & Gjorgjieva show that even before #vision, the #brain may self-organize using internally generated signals.

  2. #NeuralNetworks pre-trained with #RetinalWaves, spontaneous activity in the early #VisualSystem, predict motion faster and more accurately. Julijana Gjorgjieva and her team showed this phenomenon in simulations and real-world scenes: go.tum.de/361879
