Our Viewpoint paper just got accepted at Journal of Neuroscience! We show that there are actually *two* temporal "dimensions" to consider in visual perception and we discuss a method to disentangle them. Preprint: t.ly/9DgIF Bluesky thread: t.ly/z9QQo

Another preprint! I played around with equations and propose some adjustments to Euclidean and correlation cross-validated distances, leading to increased reliability and accuracy, for RSA and beyond! Preprint: t.ly/XaePh Bluesky thread: t.ly/qDMWO

New preprint! t.ly/yxfsh Many EEG features are commonly analyzed to characterize brain development. We showed that the latent distances between these features also differed between children and adults, and that they are much more robust to non-developmental factors.

In an ideal scenario the President of the United States and the worst person in the world would be two different people.

Musical traditions across the globe exhibit extraordinary diversity, yet certain note collections transcend cultural boundaries. What cognitive constraints might explain this? In 4 experiments across 1048 participants, we examine this question. (1/9) osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/yk…

This old preprint finally got accepted at Nature Communications! We visualize and characterize mental representations using human behavior. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Our preprint "Computational reconstruction of mental representations using human behavior" is finally out! 😊We developed a general framework to reconstruct many visual representations. psyarxiv.com/7fdvw [1/8]

Ken Shirakawa @kencan7749 is presenting this work at #VSS2024 @VSSMtg on Sat. 5/18 at 2:45 PM.
Can we reconstruct images from brain activity? The @ykamit lab argues that recent work uses a non-diverse dataset, and with appropriate controls, performance breaks down completely. This has important implications for what we can learn from such datasets. arxiv.org/abs/2405.10078

Month after month in 2023, global temperatures didn’t just break records, they surpassed them by far. Global temperatures started blowing past records midyear and didn’t stop. 2024 could be even warmer. bit.ly/3RUfOEo

I’ll be presenting some new work on the intrinsic dimensionality of brain activity during naturalistic tasks and rest at #CCN2023! Come chat with me at poster P-2A.42 at 1pm today to learn more.

Bonjour #ohbm! Looking for interesting talks this afternoon? Come to our symposium on Subjective experience and internal representations (14h45 # 211) We will cover multiple imaging modalities and approaches with the great @AthinaTzovara @aure_cor and Julia Kam Come take a look!

Come see our #OHBM2023 poster (#500) Sunday and Monday: Functional alignment of MEG activity during naturalistic movie viewing. We align MEG data of multiple participants in a shared latent space using SRM and improve prediction of new subjects' data. #OHBM

It takes me so much time to read a paper… I am so jealous of English native speakers 😩
How hard is it to do science in a language that’s not your first language? We quantified the severity of #languagebarriers for non-native English speakers when reading/publishing papers and attending/presenting at international conferences. doi.org/10.1371/journal.pbio… 1/9
