Researchers from HSE University and Moscow Polytechnic University have discovered that AI models are unable to represent features of human vision due to a lack of tight coupling with the respective physiology, so they are worse at recognizing images. The results of the study were published in the Proceedings of the Seventh International Congress on Information and Communication Technology. To understand how machine perception of images differs from human perception, scientists uploaded images of classical visual illusions to the IBM Watson Visual Recognition online service. Most of them were geometric silhouettes, partially hidden by geometric shapes of the background color. The system tried to determine the nature of the image and indicated the degree of certainty in its response.
