HTTP:: Your Brain Reveals What You See
--------
The age of science-fiction may not remain the product of overactive imagination for long. Scientists are already working on a method of extracting images people have seen, by tapping directly into their brain. After completing a modeling program that shows precisely how images are represented in the human brain, the researchers have moved towards attaching pictures to recorded patterns of neural activity, extracted directly from test subjects' cortices, Wired reports. The scientists working on these techniques admit that their technology is still decades away from completion and practical uses, but say that, one day, dream-readers and devices that will enable people to control their computers thoughtlessly may exist. “It’s what you would actually use if you were going to build a functional brain-reading device,†University of California in Berkeley (UCB) neuroscientist Jack Gallant, who is involved in the new research, explains. He led the research alongside UCB pos!
tdoctoral researcher Thomas Naselaris. In its earlier works, the team managed to identify pictures within a limited set by analyzing neural patterns inside the human brain. The experts' recent investigation is based partially on these studies, which are now more refined and sophisticated. There are some differences between the two methods...
