Multi-Voxel Pattern Analysis of fMRI Data
The central goal of cognitive neuroscience is to understand how information is processed in the brain. To accomplish this goal, researchers studying human cognition are increasingly relying on multi-voxel pattern analysis (MVPA); this method involves analyzing spatially distributed (multi-voxel) patterns of functional MRI activity, with the goal of decoding the information that is represented a...
متن کاملHIV false positive results and Flu vaccination
Abstract False positive results are the major problem influencing interpretation of Clinical Laboratory test. They are originated mostly in the other diseases, technical errors and the recent vaccination. The problem has been presented since 1991 is positive HIV test after influenza Vaccination (1). The False positive has been reported in Cases using Eliza, one of The most common test to screen...
متن کاملFunctional magnetic resonance imaging investigation of overlapping lateral occipitotemporal activations using multi-voxel pattern analysis.
Several functional areas are proposed to reside in human lateral occipitotemporal cortex, including the motion-selective human homolog of macaque area MT (hMT), object-form-selective lateral occipital complex (LO), and body-selective extrastriate body area (EBA). Indeed, several functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have reported significant activation overlap among these regions...
متن کاملBeyond mind-reading: multi-voxel pattern analysis of fMRI data.
A key challenge for cognitive neuroscience is determining how mental representations map onto patterns of neural activity. Recently, researchers have started to address this question by applying sophisticated pattern-classification algorithms to distributed (multi-voxel) patterns of functional MRI data, with the goal of decoding the information that is represented in the subject's brain at a pa...
متن کاملThe Statistical Analysis of Multi-Voxel Patterns in Functional Imaging
The goal of multi-voxel pattern analysis (MVPA) in BOLD imaging is to determine whether patterns of activation across multiple voxels change with experimental conditions. MVPA is a powerful technique, its use is rapidly growing, but it poses serious statistical challenges. For instance, it is well-known that the slow nature of the BOLD response can lead to greatly exaggerated performance estima...
