# Artiphysiology project ## Project proposal ### Aim In this project, we try to better understand an anatomically constrained convolutional neural network (MouseNet) by different visulaization techniques. Specificaly, we would like to explore - Compared to pretrained artificial networks in the literature, is there any special property in the MouseNet? - How do properties in the visualization emerge during training? How much training accuracy is enough to get that property? - How large are learned receptive field size? ### Visualization techniques - Gradient visualization - Filter visualization - Receptive field mapping ### Stimulus Cifar10 and ImageNet dataset ### Target network Anotomically constrained MouseNet with the following structure trained on Cifar10 and/or ImageNet dataset. In this figure, every arrow represent a combination of Conv/BN/Relu/Sparsity_mask with kernel size labeled on the arrow. The first and second number in yellow circle represent the output size and number of output channels in that layer. ![](https://i.imgur.com/wwNzKak.png)
