Fabio Seel is a PhD student at the Department of Data Science at Hertie AI. Fabio works on understanding how the retina encodes information before passing it through the optic nerve. Does it follow an efficient coding strategy? Does the importance of a stimulus shape our vision? Which influence has the natural environment of different species on the processing done by their retina?
In his work, he uses machine learning approaches to simulate such constraints and compare it to real data. With prior experience in the field of computer vision, Fabio is also interested in comparing the findings about the biological reality to artificial vision.
