{ "pk": 26809, "title": "Functionally localized representations contain distributed information:insight from simulations of deep convolutional neural networks", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Preferential activation to faces in the brain’s fusiform gyrus hasled to the proposed existence of a face module termed theFusiform Face Area (FFA) (Kanwisher et. al, 1997). However,arguments for distributed, topographical object-formrepresentations in FFA and across visual cortex have beenproposed to explain data showing that FFA activation patternscontain decodable information about non-face categories(Haxby et. al, 2001; Hanson & Schmidt, 2011). Using two deepconvolutional neural network models able to perform human-level object and facial recognition, respectively, wedemonstrate that both localized category representations(LCRs) and high-level face-specific representations allow forsimilar decoding accuracy between non-preferred visualcategories as between a preferred and non-preferred category.Our results suggest that neuroimaging of a cortical “module”optimized for face processing should yield significantdecodable information for non-face categories so long asrepresentations within the module are activated by non-facestimuli.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "module" }, { "word": "localized categorical representation" }, { "word": "distributed object-form topography" }, { "word": "deep convolutional neuralnetwork" }, { "word": "virtual electrophysiology" } ], "section": "Talks: Papers", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7j91z26f", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Nicholas", "middle_name": " ", "last_name": "Blauch", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Massachusetts", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Elissa", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Aminoff", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Fordham University", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Michael", "middle_name": "J.", "last_name": "Tarr", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Carnegie Mellon University", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2017-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/26809/galley/16445/download/" } ] }
