The success of methods based on artificial neural networks in creating intelligent machines seems like it might pose a challenge to explanations of human cognition in terms of Bayesian inference. We argue that this is not the case, and that in fact these systems offer new opportunities for Bayesian modeling. Specifically, we argue that Bayesian models of cognition and artificial neural networks lie at different levels of analysis and are complementary modeling approaches, together offering a way to understand human cognition that spans these levels. We also argue that the same perspective can be applied to intelligent machines, where a Bayesian approach may be uniquely valuable in understanding the behavior of large, opaque artificial neural networks that are trained on proprietary data.

    Bayesian neural networks are a thing ;)

        It’s not so theory heavy but I’ve enjoyed the paper titled “what uncertainty do we need in Bayesian deep learning for computer vision?” By Kendall and Gal of Cambridge.

        If you find some nice introductory/theory paper please share them also :)!

            Never used it :).

            Keep me updated on your progress, I barely have any time to do it as thoroughly as you and so I’ll be glad to learn from your experiment also
