Receptive Field Encoding Model for Dynamic Natural Vision

Introduction: Encoding models are used to predict human brain activity in response to sensory stimuli. The purpose of these models is to explain how sensory information represent in the brain. Convolutional neural networks trained by images are capable of encoding magnetic resonance imaging data of humans viewing natural images. Considering the hemodynamic response function, these networks are ...

سوگیری حافظه ناآشکار و آشکار در افراد افسرده بر اساس پردازش انتقال مناسب

The aim of the present research was to examine implicit and explicit memory bias in depressed individuals based on the Transfer Appropriate Processing (TAP) framework. For this purpose, 60 participants (30 outpatient depressed participants for the experimental group and 30 non-depressed participants for the control group) were selected as research sample based on psychiatric interviews of DSM-I...

Multi-perspective Decision Support System for Hierarchical Bus Transportation Network Design‎: ‎Tehran Case Study

In this paper, a multi-perspective decision support system (MP-DSS)‎ ‎to design hierarchical public transportation network is developed‎. ‎Since this problem depends on different perspectives‎, ‎MP-DSS consists of two sub-systems with macro and micro sub-systems based on travel information‎, ‎land use and expert knowledge‎. ‎In the micro sub-system‎, ‎two sub-modules are developed considering o...

Effect of Phase-Encoding Reduction on Geometric Distortion and BOLD Signal Changes in fMRI

Introduction Echo-planar imaging (EPI) is a group of fast data acquisition methods commonly used in fMRI studies. It acquires multiple image lines in k-space after a single excitation, which leads to a very short scan time. A well-known problem with EPI is that it is more sensitive to distortions due to the used encoding scheme. Source of distortion is inhomogeneity in the static B0 field that ...
