1. Motication
- have some idea about how brain works
- run a experiment and make neural recordings
- get a buch of data
convert data into answers
2. Decoding?
Alternative name: readout MVPA
predict stimulus/behavior from neural activity
Classifier:
- see some image, record the eeg
- train pattern classifier
- predict
this a analog to the real brain
3. Neural Content
Start with a simply experiment
Confusion Matrices, predict pretty well
different classifiers? both good
- MCC
- EDist(good)
- SVM
3.1. Abstract representations
Different angles/language/color, we can still tell
Example: position invariance experiment
- train upper, better accuracy upper, but not bad at middle and lower
- different pose ML/MF/AL/AM
4. Data analsis
neural content: what information
coding: what feature does brain process
