New peer-reviewed paper w/ @mheilbron.bsky.social, @predictivebrain.bsky.social & Jakub Szewczyk!
Pre-onset brain encoding has been taken as evidence that brains–like LLMs–predict upcoming words. We show that the same signatures arise in systems that cannot predict. (elifesciences.org) (1/8)
Looking forward to it! Hope to see some of you there!

A huge effort and a new take on what constitutes the "feedforward pass" across the visual system. Make sure to check out our new preprint:

I recently had the pleasure to visit the great Neurospin institute in Paris where I presented my work on the neural prediction of naturalistic dynamic input:

Some data from the talk is published at:

New paper! 🚨 ~1.8K Mooney images from THINGS + ~1K participants to study visual ambiguity resolution.
Results suggest the visual system shifts from a top-down guess to bottom-up matching after disambiguation, and a U-shaped link between info gain and identification.

in Italy, as part of an Italian FIS3 starting grant.
The project will use advanced analysis methods of MEG data to investigate how our world's naturalistic hierarchical structure facilitates predictive neural processing.
