Retina gap junctions support the robust perception by warping neural representational geometries along the visual hierarchy

ArXi:2604.14200v1 Announce Type: cross Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are vulnerable to elaborately designed adversarial noise, although they have achieved extraordinary success in many tasks. Compared with DNNs, the human visual system is highly robust. However, it is unclear how the human visual system defends against adversarial attacks, especially the role of the early visual system and its influence on the brain manifold.
