MINE uses mechanistic interpretability on language-aligned image representations to generate per-voxel feature descriptions, validated via image generation and counterfactual edits that causally shift brain activation.
Feature visualization on TRIBE v2 brain encoders recovers the known ventral visual hierarchy from V1 to V4 and produces distinctive patterns for MT, FFA, and PPA, with optimized stimuli driving ~4x higher activation than natural images.
Direction maps and pinwheel structures in MT emerge spontaneously when a spatiotemporal deep network is trained on videos with contrastive self-supervised learning and spatial regularization.
Stimulus symmetries render many neural representations functionally equivalent yet produce qualitatively different RSMs, including drifting ones from SGD or regularization in image-encoding networks.
Mathematical analysis shows sparse linear regression mitigates output dimension collapse in brain-to-image reconstruction at small data scales by exploiting sparsity in the brain-to-feature mapping.
Dual-stream EEG decoder separates identity and orientation to support 3D reconstruction from neural signals via circular regression and conditioned diffusion.
Hybrid neuromorphic-ANN models outperform standard deep learning on few-shot benchmarks and under occlusion/impulse noise via astrocytic modulation and spiking dynamics.
Joint sparse coding and temporal dynamics in mPFC and computational networks reduce cross-context interference and enhance separability, enabling better retention in lifelong learning without extra heuristics.
