Dog and Human Brains Represent Human Emotional Bodies with Asymmetric Encoding of Happiness and Anger

This study shows that dogs and humans have similar neural representations of human bodily emotions, with happiness and anger encoded asymmetrically in distinct brain regions.

An annotated bioacoustic dataset of dog vocalizations and related sounds during dog-human social play

The paper presents a bioacoustic dataset of dog-human social play vocalizations with annotations and metadata, showing acoustic differences across individuals.

Dog brain atlas generated via spatially constrained spectral clustering

The paper generates a multi-scale functional dog brain atlas using spatially constrained spectral clustering and validates its replicability and coherence across scales.

Comparative fMRI reveals differences in the functional organization of the visual cortex for animacy perception in dogs and humans

This study compares fMRI data from dogs and humans to show differences in how their visual cortex processes animacy, finding less concentrated neural representations in dogs.

Decoding Human Emotional Faces in the Dog’s Brain

This study uses fMRI to show that dogs' brains represent human emotions, specifically highlighting happiness, and can predict observed emotions using classifiers.
