I am interested in understanding the computational mechanisms that allow the brain to perceive and interpret complex stimuli.
My current research is focused on how humans process visual information about natural and synthetically-generated faces. I use face-generative models and probabilistic modeling of human perceptual judgements to understand the factors that drive different aspects of face perception such as “humanness”, face similarity and identity discrimination.
I am also interested in how can we build AI systems that are ethical and fair by incorporating an understanding of human cognitive factors and societal issues.
