Topic: many-to-one linear regression

Primate visual object recognition is supported by critical neural circuits housed in the inferior temporal (IT) cortex. How similar is one macaque IT to another? This study investigates inter-individual variation in IT cortical representations by analyzing neural responses to 640 visual stimuli (100 ms presentation at 8 degrees) across eight macaque monkeys. We employed two complementary analytical approaches: a direct one-to-one neuron matching method to assess exact neural correspondence and a many-to-one linear regression framework to evaluate potential linear transformations between indivi
