Topic: cortical topographies

Information that is shared across brains is encoded in idiosyncratic fine-scale functional topographies. Hyperalignment jointly models shared information and idiosyncratic topographies. Pattern vectors for neural responses and connectivities are projected into a common, high-dimensional information space, rather than being aligned in a canonical anatomical space. Hyperalignment calculates individual transformation matrices that preserve the geometry of pairwise dissimilarities between pattern vectors. Individual cortical topographies are modeled as mixtures of overlapping, individual-specific
