The paper shows that EEG classification on the FACED dataset is driven by stimulus identity rather than emotion, highlighting design flaws in the dataset.

The paper shows that cortical population events are generated by hierarchical modularity and distance-dependent connectivity, not attractor dynamics.

The paper analyzes how neuromodulators reshape neuronal feature spaces across different brain regions and states.

This paper develops a mean-field model of the thalamus to study state-dependent responsiveness across awake and sleep-like states, showing how neuromodulators, cortical input, and noise influence thalamic function.

The paper develops a spiking model of the cortico-thalamic loop to explain competitive interactions in visual processing and validates it against experimental data.

The paper challenges the attractor model of cortical activity by showing core neurons have weaker connections and funnel information flows instead of forming strong recurrent networks.
