A new study reveals that the hippocampus represents emotion concepts in a structured hierarchy of pleasantness and bodily reaction, while the ventromedial prefrontal cortex tracks relationships between these nodes. This map-like representation may help in the treatment of mental illnesses, such as depression and anxiety.
Researchers created a computational model that combines physiological signals, sensory input, and word information to construct human emotions. The model achieved an agreement rate of about 75% when compared to participants' self-reported emotional evaluations.
Researchers developed a novel topology-aware multiscale feature fusion network to enhance EEG-based motor imagery decoding. The TA-MFF network achieves excellent classification performance, outperforming state-of-the-art methods by leveraging spectral-topological data analysis-processing and inter-spectral recursive attention.
Qiong Ma, Assistant Professor of Physics at Boston College, has been selected as a 2025 Moore Inventor Fellow for her groundbreaking work on twistronic artificial synapses. The fellowship award comes with $675,000 over three years and will support the purchase of new scientific equipment and funding for postdocs and student researchers.
Researchers developed Torque Clustering, an unsupervised learning method that efficiently uncovers patterns in vast datasets without human guidance. The algorithm outperforms traditional methods, offering a potential paradigm shift for robotics and autonomous systems.
Researchers at KAIST developed a new method to learn without weight transport, enabling faster and more accurate learning. By pre-training with random noise, the team showed that neural networks can achieve high learning efficiency and solve the weight transport problem.
A recent study by Osaka University's researchers aims to bring science fiction stories closer to reality by studying the mechanical properties of human facial expressions. The team mapped out the intricacies of human facial movements using tracking markers, revealing that even simple motions can be surprisingly complex and nuanced.
