Whether it be in a single neuron or a more complex biological system like the human brain, form and function are often directly related. The functional organization of human visual cortex, for instance, is tightly coupled with the underlying anatomy ...
A fundamental challenge for the theoretical study of neuronal networks is to make the link between complex biophysical models based directly on experimental data, to progressively simpler mathematical models that allow the derivation of general opera...
The human visual cortex enables visual perception through a cascade of hierarchical computations in cortical regions with distinct functionalities. Here, we introduce an AI-driven approach to discover the functional mapping of the visual cortex. We r...
When a mammal, such as a macaque monkey, sees a complex natural image, many neurons in its visual cortex respond simultaneously. Here, we provide a protocol for studying the structure of population responses in laminar recordings with a machine learn...
Deep learning models currently achieve human levels of performance on real-world face recognition tasks. We review scientific progress in understanding human face processing using computational approaches based on deep learning. This review is organi...
A cornerstone of theoretical neuroscience is the circuit model: a system of equations that captures a hypothesized neural mechanism. Such models are valuable when they give rise to an experimentally observed phenomenon -- whether behavioral or a patt...
When we view a scene, the visual cortex extracts and processes visual information in the scene through various kinds of neural activities. Previous studies have decoded the neural activity into single/multiple semantic category tags which can caption...
Top-down processing in neocortex underlies functions such as prediction, expectation, and attention. Visual systems have much feedback connection that carries information of behavioral context. Top-down signals along feedback pathways modulate the re...
The recent increase in reliable, simultaneous high channel count extracellular recordings is exciting for physiologists and theoreticians because it offers the possibility of reconstructing the underlying neuronal circuits. We recently presented a me...
PURPOSE: To explore the intrinsic functional connectivity (FC) alteration of the primary visual cortex (V1) between individuals with iridocyclitis and healthy controls (HCs) by the resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) technique,...
