Natural Scene Statistics Meetings History
1995-2010

A brief history of the emergence of a field and sub-community within the
then-nascent field of computational neuroscience. I have noted with stars
two early multi-day meetings which in my (perhaps biased) opinion were
particularly extraordinary. I'm pretty sure some additional workshops are
missing - if you can help me fill the gaps, please reach out!
