Dissociations between meta-d’ and d’. by Medha Shekhar (19502698)

“…<p>We tested the three networks (4-layer CNN, VGG-19 and ResNet-50) on the task paradigm from Maniscalco et al. (2016) [<a href="http://www.ploscompbiol.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1012578#pcbi.1012578.ref018" target="_blank">18</a>] which demonstrated a dissociation between d’ and meta-d’ when the contrast of one stimulus category (S₁) remains fixed while the contrast of the other stimulus is increased in discrete steps (S₂) For this design, meta-d’ increases with d’ as expected for trials in which the observer responds "S₂", but meta-d’ decreases with d’ for trials where the observer responds "S₁". …”
