    Some faces are more memorable than others. The brain processes visual cues to decide if a face or an image will stay lodged in the memory bank. What if a network could be trained to imitate that response? You could potentially alter the visuals for a greater impact. A team of researchers at MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) has built MemNet, a deep learning based algorithm that predicts the "memorability" of your photographs almost as well as the human brain.
