Abstract In the course of daily living, humans frequently encounter situations in which a motor activity, once initiated, becomes unnecessary or inappropriate. Under such circumstances, ability to inhibit responses can be vital importance. Although nature response inhibition has been studied psychology for several decades, its neural basis remains unclear. Using transcranial magnetic stimulation, we found that temporary deactivation pars opercularis right inferior frontal gyrus selectively...
The human amygdala plays a crucial role in processing affective information conveyed by sensory stimuli. Facial expressions of fear and anger, which both signal potential threat to an observer, result significant increases activity, even when the faces are unattended or presented briefly masked. It has been suggested that afferent signals from retina travel via separate cortical subcortical pathways, with pathway underlying unconscious processing. Here we exploited phenomenon binocular...
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a unique method in neuroscience used to stimulate focal regions of the human brain. As TMS gains popularity experimental and clinical domains, techniques for controlling extent brain are becoming increasingly important. At present, intensity typically calibrated excitability motor cortex, measure referred as threshold (MT). Although commonly applied nonmotor regions, most applications do not consider effect changes distance between stimulating...
In this article we have shown that receding horizon control offers a straightforward method for designing feedback controllers deliver good performance while respecting complex constraints. A designer specifies the RHC controller by specifying objective, constraints, prediction method, and horizon, each of which has natural choice suggested directly application. more traditional approaches, such as PID control, tunes coefficients, often using trial error, to handle objectives constraints...
Intelligence is a fundamental ability that sets humans apart from other animal species. Despite its importance in defining human behaviour, the neural networks responsible for intelligence are not well understood. The dominant view neuroimaging work suggests intelligent performance on range of tasks underpinned by segregated interactions fronto-parietal network brain regions. Here we asked whether associated with ubiquitous, or emerge more widespread associations task-free context. First...
Our capacity for higher cognitive reasoning has a measurable limit. This limit is thought to arise from the brain's flexibly reconfigure interactions between spatially distributed networks. Recent work, however, suggested that reconfigurations of task-related networks are modest when compared with intrinsic "resting-state" network architecture. Here we combined resting-state and task-driven functional magnetic resonance imaging examine how flexible, task-specific associated increasing...
