Human-like face pareidolia emerges in deep neural networks optimized for face and object recognition. by Pranjul Gupta, Katharina Dobs

“…Although these CNNs showed similar overall alignment with neural data, a closer examination of their internal representations revealed that specific training tasks had distinct effects on how pareidolia faces were represented across layers. Finally, interpretability methods revealed that only a CNN trained for both face identification and object categorization relied on face-like features-such as 'eyes'-to classify pareidolia stimuli as faces, mirroring findings in human perception. …”

Does nitrate suppress phosphorus release from sediment? A case study in Lake Kasumigaura, Japan by Ryuichiro Shinohara, Kenji Tsuchiya, Ayato Kohzu

“…The oxidation and reduction reactions of Fe appeared to occur at depths below 10 cm, significantly deeper than the layers where PO43⁻ release takes place. The negligible concentration of NO3– in the sediment porewater, as well as the relationship between Fe and P species, appears to reflect that NO3- did not suppress PO43- release from sediment at Lake Kasumigaura.…”

Characterizing Light-absorbing Aerosols in a Low-income Settlement in South Africa by Nopasika A. Xulu, Stuart J. Piketh, Gregor T. Feig, Daniel A. Lack, Rebecca M. Garland

“…These diurnal cycle peak periods corresponded with the times of increased solid domestic fuel usage, road traffic, and also shallower boundary layer. On average, light-absorbing aerosols contributed a larger proportion of total ambient PM2.5 levels in winter (6.5 ± 1.0%) than in summer (3.4 ± 1.0%). …”
