Visual Image Reconstruction from Human Brain Activity

Miyawaki, Y. et al. Neuron 60, 915–929 (2008). - Visual Image Reconstruction from Human Brain Activity using a Combination of Multiscale Local Image Decoders

“In this study, we reconstructed visual images by combining local image bases of multiple scales, whose contrasts were independently decoded from fMRI activity by automatically selecting relevant voxels and exploiting their correlated patterns.”

“…disruption of the right, but not the left, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) by low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation substantially reduces subjects’ willingness to reject their partners’ intentionally unfair offers, which suggests that subjects are less able to resist the economic temptation to accept these offers. Importantly, however, subjects still judge such offers as very unfair…”
