Similar to auditory perception when listening to music, imagining a song in your head also produces neuronal signals in specific regions of the brain. Understanding how the brain encodes such ...

What was once the realm of science fiction and grifters who claim to have psychic powers takes another step towards reality as a team of researchers from the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne ...

A central question in computational and systems neuroscience is how signals carried by sensory neurons support perceptual judgments. To put these signals to use in behavioral tasks, the brain must ...

The work relies in part on a transformer model, similar to the ones that power ChatGPT. Alex Huth (left), Shailee Jain (center) and Jerry Tang (right) prepare to collect brain activity data in the ...

In a recent study published in Nature Biomedical Engineering, researchers proposed the utilization of a vision transformer model to decode surgeon activities from surgical videos. The primary ...

A new AI-based system called a semantic decoder can translate a person's brain activity -- while listening to a story or silently imagining telling a story -- into a continuous stream of text. Unlike ...
