Hallucinating Brains with Artificial Brains

Human brain function as measured by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), exhibits a rich diversity. In response, understanding the individual variability of brain function and its association with behavior has become one of the major concerns in modern cognitive neuroscience. Our work is motivated by the view that generative models provide a useful tool for understanding this variabili...

Brains have emulators with brains: Emulation economized

This commentary addresses the neural implementation of emulation, mostly using findings from functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI). Furthermore, both empirical and theoretical suggestions are discussed that render two aspects of emulation theory redundant: independent modal emulators and extra measurement of amodal emulation. This modified emulation theory can conceptually integrate simu...

Manipulating Perception

Maurice Merleau-Ponty observed that consciousness exists in the world and experience of things in the world exist in consciousness. We similarly believe that the physiological foundations of perception exist in the world and can be acted upon.
