ReGraph：双视觉流"what"与"where"中涌现泛化的计算解释
ReGraph: A Computational Account of Emergent Generalization in the "what" and "where" Dual Visual Streams
AI 导读
研究者提出 ReGraph——一种带生物归纳偏置的循环双流图模型，包含视网膜驱动的流特化编码、背侧到腹侧调制和动态侧向连接，在 Something-Something V2 动作基准上训练。结果显示，上下文不变编码与网格状空间基仅在扩展背侧通路中共同涌现，单流、无调制变体和标准基线中均不出现。事后分析表明，这些网格状基可作为可复用的路由模板，通过侧向连接支持信息处理。

Abstract:Where generalization capacity--the ability to extract context-invariant relational structures--first emerges remains a central question in AI and neuroscience. The foundation for this capacity lies upstream of the hippocampus, within the entorhinal cortex, where parallel pathways dissociate relational structure in the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) from sensory content in the lateral entorhinal cortex. However, as Eichenbaum argued, such factorization likely originates earlier, driven by the segregation of the dorsal ('where') and ventral ('what') visual streams. Supporting this, grid-like firing patterns--a signature of MEC (context-invariant codes)--also appear in preceding neocortical regions along the dorsal pathway. Yet, how such representations are computationally formed along upstream pathways remains unknown. To investigate this in silico, we developed ReGraph, a recurrent dual-stream graph model with biological inductive biases, including retina-driven stream-specialized encoding, dorsal-to-ventral modulation, and dynamic lateral connectivity. Trained on the action benchmark Something-Something V2, ReGraph revealed a pathway-specific emergence of relational mapping: context-invariant codes and grid-like spatial bases uniquely co-emerged along the extended dorsal stream. In contrast, their absence in single-stream, unmodulated variants, and standard baselines implies that these inductive biases are prerequisites for relational structures. Crucially, our post-hoc analyses demonstrated that these grid-like bases serve as reusable routing templates for information processing via lateral connectivity. Together, our findings provide a computational account that generalization may not be a faculty that emerges abruptly within a dedicated region, but a property that already takes shape as sensory information is parsed into factorized streams of hierarchical visual processing.
