+ | * authors present a computational model, which predicts the functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) of neural activation associated with words for which no fMRI data are available | ||
+ | * fMRI prediction for a word '' | ||
+ | - compute a vector of semantic features over a huge corpus | ||
+ | * 25 features are defined in terms of co-occurrence of '' | ||
+ | - predict neural fMRI activation as a weighted sum of semantic features | ||
+ | * weights for every voxel (3D pixel) and feature are estimated using multiple regression | ||
+ | * fMRI data | ||
+ | * they created 60 representative fMRI images | ||
+ | * word - picture combination from 12 semantic categories | ||
+ | * they measured brain activation of 9 participants after being exposed to all 60 word - picture combinations | ||

+ | * 58 of them served as a training data | ||
+ | * for two of them fMRI images were predicted and compared with observed images. On the basis of cosine similarity measure a matching was determined. If the predicted image for the first word matches with its corresponding observed image, one positive point is scored - aggregated over all folds, it forms an accuracy measure | ||

+ | * authors selected 25 sensory-motor verbs as a basis for their co-occurence features. But they did not sufficiently explain what led them to pick exactly these ones. | ||
