We advocate a shift in emphasis within cognitive neuroscience from multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA) to the design and testing of explicit models of neural representation. With such models, it becomes possible to identify the specific representations encoded in patterns of brain activity and to map them across the brain.
我们主张认知神经科学内部的重点转移,从多变量模式分析(MVPA)转向神经表征显式模型的设计与测试。有了这样的模型,就有可能识别大脑活动模式中编码的特定表征,并将它们映射到整个大脑。
