Toward a Simulated Avian Visual System: Connectome Mapping of the Pigeon Tectofugal Pathway as a Biologically-Grounded CNN Alternative

Image recognition remains one of the central unsolved problems in machine learning. Despite superhuman benchmark accuracy, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) fail systematically at the tasks that define real-world deployment: they require orders of magnitude more labeled data than biological learners, collapse under...
