Wavelet-Based Temporal-Spectral-Attention Correlation Coefficient for Motor Imagery EEG Classification

Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) technology has rapidly developed in recent years and is considered a cutting-edge technology that allows external devices to be controlled directly by the brain without the need for peripheral nerves and muscles. Particularly in the application of Motor Imagery Electroencephalography (MI-EEG), BCI technology has shown...

ADFCNN: Attention-Based Dual-Scale Fusion Convolutional Neural Network for Motor Imagery Brain–Computer Interface

ADFCNN: Attention-Based Dual-Scale Fusion Convolutional Neural Network for Motor Imagery Brain–Computer Interface

Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) has emerged as an enhanced communication and control technology in recent years. In BCI based on electrophysiological characteristics (such as Electroencephalogram, EEG), Motor Imagery (MI) is an important branch that decodes users’ motor intentions for use in clinical rehabilitation, intelligent wheelchair control, c...

Heuristics in Risky Decision-Making Relate to Preferential Representation of Information

Paper Title: heuristics in risky decision-making relate to preferential representation of information Research Background When making choices, individuals not only differ from each other but also deviate from normative theoretical recommendations. One explanation for this difference is that individuals have unique information representation prefere...

Magnetoencephalography-Derived Oscillatory Microstate Patterns Across Lifespan: The Cambridge Centre for Ageing and Neuroscience Cohort

Application of Magnetoencephalography (MEG) to Analyze Changes in Whole-Brain Oscillatory Microstate Patterns Across the Lifespan: Cambridge Centre for Aging and Neuroscience Cohort Study Research Background With the increasing seriousness of the aging population problem, understanding the neurophysiological changes during the aging process becomes...

The Cortical Neurophysiological Signature of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Analysis of Cortical Neurophysiological Characteristics of ALS and Its Potential as a Biomarker Background Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease that affects adults, characterized by a gradual loss of the integrity of the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral motor system. Although clinical and genetic studies have reveale...

Negation Mitigates Rather Than Inverts the Neural Representations of Adjectives

Background Introduction A notable characteristic of human language processing is our ability to combine stored lexical elements, i.e., words, as needed to flexibly generate or alter current meanings. At the core of this process is how we construct semantic representations in real time. Although research on the generation of syntactic structures has...

Phase-dependent word perception emerges from region-specific sensitivity to the statistics of language

Phase-dependent word perception emerges from region-specific sensitivity to the statistics of language

Phase-Dependent Language Perception in Neural Oscillations: An Interdisciplinary Study Report Background During speech perception, the phase of neural oscillations plays a crucial role in the separation of neural representations and perceptual decisions. However, the specific phase-encoding mechanisms remain unclear. This study aims to reveal how p...

Neural Representations of Perspectival Shapes and Attentional Effects: Evidence from fMRI and MEG

Neural Representation of Perspective Shapes and the Effect of Attention: Evidence from fMRI and MEG Introduction We always perceive objects from a specific perspective. In many cases, the shape we rely on when observing an object, the perspective shape, differs from its objective shape, the physical shape in the real world. For instance, a coin rot...

Reactivation strength during cued recall is modulated by graph distance within cognitive maps

Reactivation Strength in Memory is Modulated by Graph Distance in Cognitive Maps Research Background Memory formation and retrieval are among the crucial areas of research in neuroscience. Classic memory theories propose that memory depends on three distinct stages: encoding, consolidation, and retrieval. New episodic memories are formed through en...
