The paper investigates the cerebral organization of perceived and felt emotions using fMRI and emotional movies, revealing shared and distinct neural mechanisms across brain regions.

The paper investigates gaze patterns in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and finds they are heterogeneous across individuals but reliable within individuals, supporting a hypothesis for subtype investigation.

The paper uses pattern recognition to show that observing and displaying facial expressions activate similar neural patterns, supporting the embodied emotion recognition model.

The paper uses pattern recognition on fMRI data to classify emotions based on functional connectivity, finding distinct patterns for most emotions but not sadness.

The paper evaluates importance extraction methods in neural network-based fMRI classification, finding that importance maps outperform univariate approaches in detecting overlapping and weakly informative patterns.

The paper identifies discrete neural activation patterns for 14 emotions using fMRI and pattern classification, showing distributed brain activity across multiple regions.
