Predictive encoding of auditory sequences in the human prefrontal cortex

The paper investigates how the human prefrontal cortex encodes auditory sequences to predict future events, showing distinct roles for orbitofrontal and lateral PFC regions.

Direct brain recordings reveal continuous encoding of structure in random stimuli

This study uses intracranial recordings to show the brain continuously encodes structure in random auditory stimuli through transitional probabilities, involving non-auditory brain regions.

Anatomical registration of intracranial electrodes. Robust model-based localization and deformable smooth brain-shift compensation methods

This paper introduces two algorithms, GridFit and CEPA, for accurate and automatic localization of intracranial electrodes and brain-shift compensation, validated on real patient data.

Decision and response monitoring during working memory are sequentially represented in the human insula

The paper uses intracranial EEG to show that different insula subregions are involved in decision-making and response monitoring during verbal working memory.

Subspace partitioning in human prefrontal cortex resolves cognitive interference

The paper identifies a coding mechanism in human prefrontal cortex that resolves interference between past and present task variables by partitioning neural activity into distinct low-dimensional states.

Modeling intracranial electrodes

The paper models intracranial electrodes and simulates CT artifacts to evaluate and optimize electrode localization algorithms.

Population coding and oscillatory subspace synchronization integrate context into actions

This study shows how oscillatory synchrony and continuous population dynamics in prefrontal cortex integrate context into action plans during goal-directed behavior.

Intracranial recordings demonstrate medial temporal lobe engagement in visual search in humans

The paper uses intracranial recordings to show the medial temporal lobe and frontal cortex are involved in visual search, with Pop-out selectivity in frontal regions.

An Electrophysiological Marker of Arousal Level in Humans

The paper identifies the 1/f spectral slope as an electrophysiological marker that distinguishes wakefulness from sleep and anesthesia by reflecting changes in excitation-inhibition balance.

Auditory deviance detection in the human insula: An intracranial EEG study

This study uses intracranial EEG to show that specific regions of the human insula are involved in detecting auditory deviants.
