A review of physical and mathematical methods for reconstructing the functional networks of
the brain based on recorded brain activity is presented. Various methods are considered, as …

Humans are voracious imaginers, with internal simulations supporting memory, planning
and decision-making. Because the neural mechanisms supporting imagery overlap with …

Perception can be described as a process of inference, integrating bottom-up sensory inputs
and top-down expectations. However, it is unclear how this process is neurally implemented …

Signal detection theory is one of psychology's most well-known and influential theoretical
frameworks. However, the conceptual hurdles that had to be overcome before the theory …

Current computational accounts posit that, in simple binary choices, humans accumulate
evidence in favour of the different alternatives before committing to a decision. Neural …

Recent evidence of unconscious working memory challenges the notion that only visible
stimuli can be actively maintained over time. In the present study, we investigated the neural …

In recent years, time-resolved multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA) has gained much
popularity in the analysis of electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetoencephalography …

The encoding of sensory information in the human brain is thought to be optimised by two
principal processes:'prediction'uses stored information to guide the interpretation of …

Perception is often modelled as a process of active inference, whereby prior expectations
are combined with noisy sensory measurements to estimate the structure of the world. This …

Perception is a process of inference, integrating sensory inputs with prior expectations.
However, little is known regarding the temporal dynamics of this integration. It has been …
