Findings

• IC-194Temporal modeling in video models drives representational alignment to early visual cortex, while action classification task drives alignment to late brain areas
• IC-195Transformers achieve high brain alignment in early visual cortex at much shallower network depth than CNNs
• IC-197Model computational complexity (FLOPs) shows a significant negative correlation with brain alignment in high-level brain areas
