The Neurocomputational Mechanism Underlying Decision-Making on Unfairness to Self and Others

Neural computational mechanisms underlying fairness-based decisions: Self-Unfairness and Other-Unfairness Abstract: Fairness is a fundamental value in human society, and individuals show concern for both self-unfairness and other-unfairness. However, there has been a long-standing debate on whether self-unfairness and other-unfairness evoke shared ...

The Role of Occipitotemporal Network for Speed-Reading: An fMRI Study

The Role of Occipitotemporal Network for Speed-Reading: An fMRI Study

The Role of Occipitotemporal Network in Rapid Reading - An fMRI-based Study Background Reading is the most effective cognitive means for humans to acquire new knowledge. Although most native English-speaking adults read at an average speed of about 200 to 400 words per minute (w/min), many people hope to increase their reading speed to acquire new ...

The Neural Mechanism of Knowledge Assembly in the Human Brain Inspires Artificial Intelligence Algorithm

Brain Science Research Inspires AI Algorithms: Neural Mechanisms of Knowledge Assembly Background Introduction When new information enters the brain, human pre-existing knowledge of the world can quickly change through a process called “knowledge assembly.” Recently, in a study conducted by Nelli et al., the neural correlates of knowledge assembly ...

Cortical Networks Relating to Arousal Are Differentially Coupled to Neural Activity and Hemodynamics

Differences in Coupling Between Cortical Networks Related to Arousal in Neural Activity and Hemodynamics Academic Background In the absence of specific sensory inputs or behavioral tasks, the brain generates structured activity patterns. This organized activity is modulated by the state of arousal. The relationship between arousal and cortical acti...
