Evidence for hierarchical representations of written and spoken words from an open-science human neuroimaging dataset

The paper re-analyzes fMRI data to explore hierarchical processing of written and spoken words, identifying modality-specific brain regions and their responses to word and sublexical frequency.

Tool-use brain representations are independent of the acting body part and motor experience

The paper shows that tool-use brain representations in motor association areas are independent of the acting body part and motor experience.

Metamodal Coupling of Vibrotactile and Auditory Speech Processing Systems Through Matched Stimulus Representations

The paper shows that matching neural representations between sensory modalities is critical for metamodal brain engagement, as demonstrated by vibrotactile word recognition tasks.

Evidence for a Spoken Word Lexicon in the Auditory Ventral Stream

The paper provides evidence for an auditory lexicon in the left anterior superior temporal gyrus using fMRI, showing selectivity for spoken words and sharpening after training.

Neural basis of learning to perceive speech through touch using an acoustic-to-vibrotactile speech sensory substitution

This study investigates neural changes during vibrotactile speech learning, showing integration with auditory speech systems through fMRI and EEG.

Leveraging prior concept learning improves ability to generalize from few examples in computational models of human object recognition

This paper shows that reusing high-level visual features improves deep learning models' ability to learn from few examples, mimicking human visual concept learning.

Microsaccades during high speed continuous visual search

The paper analyzes microsaccades during continuous visual search and finds that microsaccade rates drop rapidly after trial onset, with corrective microsaccades occurring in some trials.

Evidence for face selectivity in early vision

The paper challenges the standard hierarchical visual processing model by showing face selectivity in early visual areas through eye tracking, fMRI, and EEG experiments.
