Tracking competition and cognitive control during language comprehension with multi-voxel pattern analysis.
To successfully comprehend a sentence that contains a homonym, readers must select the ambiguous word's context-appropriate meaning. The outcome of this process is influenced both by top-down contextual support and bottom-up, word-specific characteristics. We examined how these factors jointly affect the neural signatures of lexical ambiguity resolution. We measured the similarity between multi...
متن کاملMulti-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 کاملA critique of multi-voxel pattern analysis
Multi-voxel pattern analysis (MVPA) is a popular analytical technique in neuroscience that involves identifying patterns in fMRI BOLD signal data that are predictive of task conditions. But the technique is also frequently used to make inferences about the regions of the brain that are most important to the tasks in question, and our analysis shows that this is a mistake. MVPA does not provide ...
متن کاملPredicting Cognitive Decline in Older Adults Through Multi-Voxel Pattern Analysis
PREDICTING COGNITIVE DECLINE IN OLDER ADULTS THROUGH MULTI-VOXEL PATTERN ANALYSIS Nathan Hantke, M.S. Marquette University, 2014 Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that is associated with cognitive and structural decline beyond what is seen in normal, healthy aging. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) research indicates that prior to the onset of measu...
متن کاملMulti-person Tracking Strategies Based on Voxel Analysis
This paper presents two approaches to the problem of simultaneous tracking of several people in low resolution sequences from multiple calibrated cameras. Spatial redundancy is exploited to generate a discrete 3D binary representation of the foreground objects in the scene. Color information obtained from the zenithal view is added to this 3D information. The first tracking approach implements ...
