FASTIMAGES: Validating replay detection methods in human Neuroimaging using a combined MEG and fMRI dataset

Simon Kern, Lennart Wittkuhn, Elena Buss, Nicolas W. Schuck, Gordon B. Feld

The paper introduces FASTIMAGES, a benchmark dataset combining MEG and fMRI to evaluate replay detection methods in humans, showing method-specific strengths and cross-modality challenges.

Challenges in Replay Detection by TDLM in Post-Encoding Resting State

Simon Kern, Juliane Nagel, Lennart Wittkuhn, Steffen Gais, Raymond J. Dolan, Gordon B. Feld

The paper investigates replay detection using TDLM and MEG during post-learning resting states and finds no evidence of replay, suggesting methodological limitations in detecting low-density replay events.

Reactivation strength during cued recall is modulated by graph distance within cognitive maps

Simon Kern, Juliane Nagel, Martin Fungisai Gerchen, Çağatay Necati Gürsoy, Andreas Meyer‐Lindenberg, Peter Kirsch, Raymond J. Dolan, Steffen Gais, Gordon B. Feld

The paper shows that reactivation strength during cued recall decreases with graph distance, only in successful retrieval, suggesting graded clustered reactivation in cognitive maps.
