Research Interest
Bao’s laboratory will focus on the exploration of the neural mechanism of high-level visual cognition, such as object recognition, scene categorization and contour segmentation. The lab will combine electrophysiological recordings, functional brain imaging, micro electrical stimulation and psychophysics methods to study human and non-human primate’s visual systems across different levels. To build the mathematic model of the visual function of the primate brain, different kinds of tools, including deep learning network will be applied with the collected data.
