Similarity of Cortical Activity Patterns Predicts generalization Behavior
Humans and animals readily generalize previously learned knowledge to new situations. Determining similarity is critical for assigning category membership to a novel stimulus. We tested the hypothesis that category membership is initially encoded by the similarity of the activity pattern evoked by a novel stimulus to the patterns from known categories. We provide behavioral and neurophysiologic...
متن کاملActivity of inferior temporal cortical neurons predicts recognition choice behavior and recognition time during visual search.
Although the selectivity for complex stimuli exhibited by neurons in inferior temporal cortex is often taken as evidence of their role in visual perception, few studies have directly tested this hypothesis. Here, we sought to create a relatively natural task with few behavioral constraints to test whether activity in inferior temporal cortex neurons predicts whether or not a monkey will recogni...
متن کاملPerceptual similarity of visual patterns predicts the similarity of their dynamic neural activation patterns measured with MEG
Perceptual similarity is a cognitive judgment that represents the end-stage of a complex cascade of hierarchical processing throughout visual cortex. Previous studies have shown a correspondence between the similarity of coarse-scale fMRI activation patterns and the perceived similarity of visual stimuli, suggesting that visual objects that appear similar also share similar underlying patterns ...
متن کاملSimilarity-Guided Clause Generalization
Few works are available in the literature to define similarity criteria between First-Order Logic formulæ, where the presence of relations causes various portions of one description to be possibly mapped in different ways onto another description, which poses serious computational problems. Hence, the need for a set of general criteria that are able to support the comparison between formulæ. Th...
متن کاملGlobal cortical activity predicts shape of hand during grasping
Recent studies show that the amplitude of cortical field potentials is modulated in the time domain by grasping kinematics. However, it is unknown if these low frequency modulations persist and contain enough information to decode grasp kinematics in macro-scale activity measured at the scalp via electroencephalography (EEG). Further, it is unclear as to whether joint angle velocities or moveme...
