About

This repository contains the code for our paper 'How Convolutional Neural Network Architecture Biases Learned Opponency and Spectral Tuning' and a previous version entitled 'Spatial and Colour Opponency in Anatomically Constrained Deep Networks', accepted to the NeurIPS 2019 workshop on Shared Visual Representations in Humans and Machines (SVRHM).
