Mirror neurons (MNs) were first described in a seminal paper in 1992 as a class of monkey
premotor cells discharging during both action execution and observation. Despite their …

Others' observed actions cause continuously changing retinal images, making it challenging
to build neural representations of action identity. The monkey anterior intraparietal area …

Abnormal phase-amplitude coupling between β and broadband-γ activities has been
identified in recordings from the cortex or scalp of patients with Parkinson's disease. While …

Current knowledge regarding the processing of observed manipulative actions (OMAs)(eg,
grasping, dragging, or dropping) is limited to grasping and underlying neural circuitry …

The posterior parietal cortex (PPC) has long been understood as a high-level integrative
station for computing motor commands for the body based on sensory (ie, mostly tactile and …

Decision-making via monitoring others' actions is a cornerstone of interpersonal exchanges.
Although the ventral premotor cortex (PMv) and the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) are …

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) are a class of machine learning models
predominately used in computer vision tasks and can achieve human-like performance …

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) based methods are emerging as a unique
approach to evaluate in real-time brain electrical activity in healthy and pathological …

The action observation network (AON) includes a system of brain areas largely shared with
action execution in both human and nonhuman primates. Yet temporal and tuning …

Humans and monkey studies showed that specific sectors of cerebellum and basal ganglia
activate not only during execution but also during observation of hand actions. However, it is …
