This $283,832 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research to investigate how AI-powered vision-language models generate plausible visual scenes in real-time based on limited peripheral vision inputs, as compared to human visual perception. The awardee, Stony Brook University, will test these AI models by having them generate scenes that human participants will then evaluate as either real or AI-generated. This research aims to improve understanding of the semantic variability and algorithms underlying human visual stability and scene perception. The findings may contribute to developing smarter AI systems that perceive the world more like humans, with potential applications in self-driving cars and augmented reality. The award is active from April 2025 through March 2028 and does not involve any sub-awards.
