Restoring some language for aphasia sufferers, like Bruce Willis and a million other Americans, could involve AI. Brain activity like this, measured in an fMRI machine, can be used to train a brain ...

A recent study published in the journal Brain Research provides evidence that people recognize facial expressions faster and ...

Scientists are learning how the brain extracts discrete words from a continuous stream of sounds.

Scientists have developed a brain-computer interface that can capture and decode a person's inner monologue. The results could help people who are unable to speak communicate more easily with others.

This video still shows a view of one person's cerebral cortex. Pink areas have above-average activity; blue areas have below-average activity. (Jerry Tang and Alexander Huth) Scientists have found a ...

Recently, my colleagues and I published a study on decoding language from brain recordings made using functional MRI. Brain decoders are being developed to help restore communication to people who ...

Sharing our thoughts with others has always required some form of active translation, whether through audible speech, the written word, or visual arts. But what if we could skip that step entirely by ...

The work relies in part on a transformer model, similar to the ones that power ChatGPT. Alex Huth (left), Shailee Jain (center) and Jerry Tang (right) prepare to collect brain activity data in the ...

Language and speech are how we express our inner thoughts. But neuroscientists just bypassed the need for audible speech, at least in the lab. Instead, they directly tapped into the biological machine ...

A lab develops brain wave decoder that may help in spinal cord injury rehabilitation. When a person sustains an injury to the spinal cord, the normal communication between the brain and the spinal ...

Brain activity like this, measured in an fMRI machine, can be used to train a brain decoder to decipher what a person is thinking about. In this latest study, UT Austin researchers have developed a ...
