Deep-learning models reveal how context and listener attention shape electrophysiological correlates of speech-to-language transformation

Plos.org 

by Andrew J. Anderson, Chris Davis, Edmund C. Lalor

To transform continuous speech into words, the human brain must resolve variability across utterances in intonation, speech rate, volume, accents and so on. A promising approach to explaining this process has been to model electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings of brain responses to speech. Contemporary models typically invoke context invariant speech categories (e.g. phonemes) as an intermediary representational stage between sounds and words. Читать дальше...

High-level visual prediction errors in early visual cortex

Plos.org 

by David Richter, Tim C. Kietzmann, Floris P. de Lange

Perception is shaped by both incoming sensory input and expectations derived from our prior knowledge. Numerous studies have shown stronger neural activity for surprising inputs, suggestive of predictive processing. However, it is largely unclear what predictions are made across the cortical hierarchy, and therefore what kind of surprise drives this up-regulation of activity. Here, we leveraged fMRI in human volunteers and deep neural... Читать дальше...
