Understanding the relationship between deep visual representations and the human visual system is a fundamental challenge in computational neuroscience. While modern vision models achieve strong performance in image recognition, their correspondence with the hierarchical organization of the human visual cortex remains an open question.

Vision Mamba models replace quadratic self-attention with linear complexity selective state space models (SSMs), emerging as efficient visual backbones. However, MambaOut demonstrates that a Gated CNN block can match or exceed VMamba on image classification, questioning the necessity of SSMs for vision.

The human brain processes dynamic visual input through hierarchically organized, functionally specialized regions. While recent in silico brain encoding models can synthesize optimal stimuli to probe selectivity in different brain regions, prior work has been largely limited to static images, leaving dynamic visual processing underexplored.
