New Preprint! We often learn gradually, but sometimes things occur to us in a flash, aka aha-moment. Why? We explored the comp. mechanisms of spontaneous periods of fast learning & show they arise even in simple NNs.

And here is the English version👇 past and present members of the Israel Young Academy call all academic institutions to support students and faculty who join the protests, and to defend freedom of expression on our campuses. We fight for democracy and won’t stop doing so https://twitter.com/liad_mudrik/status/1625514575259918337

Exciting to have @nadine_dijkstra at our lab meeting this morning. Always imagined the work would be fantastic given our fascinating chats over the years. Enjoyed obtaining more perceptual evidence to boost the strength of that signal

Our paper is out @HSScomms : Changing minds about climate change | with @BeukelaerSophie @NezaVehar @M_Rollwage @smfleming & @manos_tsakiris. We are looking at if and how domain-general metacognition impacts belief updating in relation to #climatechange https://www.nature.com/articles/s41599-023-01528-x

How much of your visual working memory content do you utilize? We show that you consistently load up more than you end up using!
In our latest Cognition article (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cognition.2023.105381) we explain why. See the next few tweets for the TL;DR

Interesting paper by Jinke Liu & @martin_a_vinck in @PLOSCompBiol. Applying "distance-of-distance" transformation to the pairwise distance matrix of high-dim data separates signal from noise, making all noise points (grey) cluster together. Impressive!
