Brain states recur across diverse narrative contexts during longitudinal viewing

The paper identifies recurring brain states during longitudinal viewing of a TV series, showing that the repertoire is individual-specific and adapts to narrative content.

Training neural networks from scratch in a videogame leads to brittle brain encoding

This study compares brain encoding performance of neural networks trained with different objectives on video game data, finding small advantages for reinforcement learning but overall brittle and limited generalization.

Neural Correlates of Reactivation and Vividness Reveal Separable Contributions to Objective and Subjective Measures of Episodic Memory

The paper compares neural reactivation and vividness judgments in episodic memory using meta-analytic methods across four neuroimaging datasets, finding shared and distinct neural correlates.

Changes in patterns of neural activity underlie a time-dependent transformation of memory in rats and humans

The paper shows that memory representation changes over time in rats and humans, with shifts from hippocampal to prefrontal cortex activity as memories age.

Eye-movement reinstatement and neural reactivation during mental imagery

This study investigates mental imagery by analyzing fMRI and eye-tracking data, finding that neural reactivation correlates with vivid imagery and fixation reinstatement.
