OBJECTIVE: Despite the prevalent use of the general linear model (GLM) in fMRI data analysis, assuming a pre-defined hemodynamic response function (HRF) for all voxels can lead to reduced reliability and may distort the inferences derived from it. To...

Dynamic 2-[18F] fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography (dFDG-PET) for human brain imaging has considerable clinical potential, yet its utilization remains limited. A key challenge in the quantitative analysis of dFDG-PET is characteriz...
BACKGROUND: Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a widespread mental health issue, impacting spatial and temporal aspects of brain activity. The neural mechanisms behind MDD remain unclear. To address this gap, we introduce a novel measure, spatiotempo...
Accurate mapping of brain functional subregions at an individual level is crucial. Task-based functional MRI (tfMRI) captures subject-specific activation patterns during various functions and behaviors, facilitating the individual localization of fun...
Human listeners have the ability to direct their attention to a single speaker in a multi-talker environment. The neural correlates of selective attention can be decoded from a single trial of electroencephalography (EEG) data. In this study, leverag...

Brain age (BA) is defined as a measure of brain maturity and could help characterize both the typical brain development and neuropsychiatric disorders in mammals. Various biological phenotypes have been successfully applied to predict BA of human usi...
Preparatory brain activity is a cornerstone of proactive cognitive control, a top-down process optimizing attention, perception, and inhibition, fostering cognitive flexibility and adaptive attention control in the human brain. In this study, we prop...

Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) can reflect spontaneous neural activities in the brain and is widely used for brain disorder analysis. Previous studies focus on extracting fMRI representations using machine/deep learning...
Presurgical evaluation with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) can reduce postsurgical morbidity. Here, we discuss presurgical fMRI mapping at ultra-high magnetic fields (UHF), i.e., ≥ 7 T, in the light of the current growing interest in ar...
When processing language, the brain is thought to deploy specialized computations to construct meaning from complex linguistic structures. Recently, artificial neural networks based on the Transformer architecture have revolutionized the field of nat...
