Claims
Mirror Touch Net imposes semantic, distributional and geometric alignment between visual and tactile representations through multi-level constraints, enabling prediction of millimetre-scale tactile signals across 1,140 taxels on a robotic hand from RGB images.
That the imposed multi-level alignment constraints successfully instantiate the structural correspondence between visual and somatosensory cortices and that this produces genuine mirror resonance rather than a superficial mapping.
Mirror Touch Net aligns visual and tactile data manifolds to predict millimetre-scale touch signals across 1,140 taxels from images, extending to human hand observations for reflexive robotic responses.
