Hyperalignment: Modeling shared information encoded in idiosyncratic cortical topographies
Information that is shared across brains is encoded in idiosyncratic fine-scale functional
topographies. Hyperalignment captures shared information by projecting pattern vectors for …

Integrative and distinctive coding of visual and conceptual object features in the ventral visual stream
A significant body of research in cognitive neuroscience is aimed at understanding how
object concepts are represented in the human brain. However, it remains unknown whether …

A multi-scale cortical wiring space links cellular architecture and functional dynamics in the human brain
The vast net of fibres within and underneath the cortex is optimised to support the
convergence of different levels of brain organisation. Here, we propose a novel coordinate …

The neuro-cognitive representations of symbols: the case of concrete words
V Borghesani, M Piazza - Neuropsychologia, 2017 - Elsevier
We live our lives surrounded by symbols (eg, road signs, logos, but especially words and
numbers), and throughout our life we use them to evoke, communicate and reflect upon …

Distinct representational structure and localization for visual encoding and recall during visual imagery
During memory recall and visual imagery, reinstatement is thought to occur as an echoing of
the neural patterns during encoding. However, the precise information in these recall traces …
