People make fast and reasonable predictions about the physical behavior of everyday objects. To do so, people may use principled mental shortcuts, such as object simplification, similar to models developed by engineers for real-time simulations. We hypothesize that simplified approximations tracking action (the
Noise is a major challenge for the analysis of fMRI data in general and connectivity analyses particular. As researchers develop increasingly sophisticated tools to model statistical dependence between signal different brain regions, there risk that these models may capture artifactual relationships are result noise. Thus, choosing optimal denoising methods crucial step maximize accuracy reproducibility models. Most comparisons require knowledge ground truth: what 'real signal'. For this...
Category-selectivity is a fundamental principle of organization perceptual brain regions. Human occipitotemporal cortex subdivided into areas that respond preferentially to faces, bodies, artifacts, and scenes. However, observers need combine information about objects from different categories form coherent understanding the world. How this multi-category encoded in brain? Studying multivariate interactions between regions with fMRI artificial neural networks, we found angular gyrus shows...
People make fast and reasonable predictions about the physical behavior of everyday objects. To do so, people may be using principled approximations, similar to models developed by engineers for purposes real-time simulations. We hypothesize that use simplified object approximations tracking action (the "body" representation), as opposed fine-grained forms recognition "shape" representation). used three classic psychophysical tasks (causality perception, collision detection, change...
