Ventrointermediate thalamic stimulation improves motor learning in humans

This study shows that VIM-DBS enhances motor learning for fixed sequential finger movements but not for random sequences, indicating its role in thalamo-cortical motor learning.

Seeing and Extrapolating motion trajectories share common informative activation patterns in primary visual cortex

This study shows that motion direction during occlusion can be predicted from activity patterns in low-level visual areas during visible motion, suggesting shared computational circuits in primary visual cortex.

Multiscale criticality measures as general-purpose gauges of proper brain function

This paper introduces multiscale criticality measures (MsCr) to assess brain function across disorders by analyzing MEG and EEG data.

Local sleep during mind-wandering enhances processes of spatial attention allocation

The paper investigates how mind-wandering during local sleep affects visual attention and finds that attentional selection improves despite reduced cortical processing of external stimuli.

Decoding the covert shift of spatial attention from electroencephalographic signals permits reliable control of a brain-computer interface

This paper introduces a BCI method that decodes covert spatial attention from EEG signals, achieving reliable control without requiring eye movements or multiple stimulus presentations.

Convolutional Neural Networks for Decoding of Covert Attention Focus and Saliency Maps for EEG Feature Visualization

This paper evaluates CNNs for EEG decoding and introduces saliency maps to visualize model features, showing CNNs outperform LDA on high-dimensional data.

Direct evidence for prediction signals in frontal cortex independent of prediction error

The paper provides direct evidence for prediction signals in the human frontal cortex during event anticipation, independent of prediction-error signals.
