We come to understand other people's physical and mental states by re-mapping their bodily states onto our sensorimotor system. This process, also called somatosensory resonance, is an essential ability for social cognition and is stronger when observing i ...

Adaptive Filtering Methods for Identifying Cross-Frequency Couplings in Human EEG

Jean-Marc Vesin, Jérôme Sébastien Van Zaen

Oscillations have been increasingly recognized as a core property of neural responses that contribute to spontaneous, induced, and evoked activities within and between individual neurons and neural ensembles. They are considered as a prominent mechanism fo ...

Using Goal- and Grip-Related Information for Understanding the Correctness of Other's Actions: An ERP Study

Michiel van Elk

Detecting errors in other's actions is of pivotal importance for joint action, competitive behavior and observational learning. Although many studies have focused on the neural mechanisms involved in detecting low-level errors, relatively little is known a ...

Decoding The Activity Of Grasping Neurons Recorded From The Ventral Premotor Area F5 Of The Macaque Monkey

Silvestro Micera

Many neurons in the monkey ventral premotor area F5 discharge selectively when the monkey grasps an object with a specific grip. Of these, the motor neurons are active only during grasping execution, whereas the visuomotor neurons also respond to object pr ...

Implicit Human Centered Tagging

Nicolae Suditu, Alessandro Vinciarelli

This paper provides a general introduction to the concept of Implicit Human-Centered Tagging (IHCT) - the automatic extraction of tags from nonverbal behavioral feedback of media users. The main idea behind IHCT is that nonverbal behaviors displayed when i ...

Modeling the neural correlates of imitation from a neuropsychological perspective

Biljana Petreska von Ritter-Zahony

Imitation is a fundamental mechanism by which humans learn and understand the actions of others. This thesis addresses the low-level neural mechanisms underlying the imitation of meaningless gestures, using tools from computational neuroscience. We investi ...

Essays on individual decision making under uncertainty

Elise Le Nestour

This research project is an experimental study of decision-making in very difficult contexts resembling those encountered in financial markets. The starting point was the empirical observation that financial assets are objects of a very complex kind. Speci ...

Words denoting manipulable objects activate sensorimotor brain areas, likely reflecting action experience with the denoted objects. In particular, these sensorimotor lexical representations have been found to reflect the way in which an object is used. In ...

Defective inhibition and inter-regional phase synchronization in pianists with musician's dystonia: an EEG study

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel

Recent neurophysiological studies have associated focal-task specific dystonia (FTSD) with impaired inhibitory function. However, it remains unknown whether FTSD also affects the inhibition (INH) of long-term overlearned motor programs. Consequently, we in ...

Wiley-Blackwell2009

Imitation is the ability to recognize, learn and reproduce the actions of others. In addition to facilitating the transmission of knowledge and skills, it has been suggested that this fundamental cognitive capacity is at the origin of other human faculties ...
