Objects are the core meaningful elements in our visual environment. Classic theories of
object vision focus upon object recognition and are elegant and simple. Some of their …

The ventral visual stream is conceived as a pathway for object recognition. However, we
also recognize the actions an object can be involved in. Here, we show that action …

Despite the similarity in structure, the hemispheres of the human brain have somewhat
different functions. A traditional view of hemispheric organization asserts that there are …

Both temporal and frontoparietal brain areas are associated with the representation of
knowledge about the world, in particular about actions. However, what these brain regions …

Visual representations of bodies, in addition to those of faces, contribute to the recognition of
con-and heterospecifics, to action recognition, and to nonverbal communication. Despite its …

Representational similarity analysis (RSA) is a computational technique that uses pairwise
comparisons of stimuli to reveal their representation in higher-order space. In the context of …

The nature of domain-specific organization in higher-order visual cortex (ventral occipital
temporal cortex, VOTC) has been investigated both in the case of visual experience …

We present a dataset of behavioural and fMRI observations acquired in the context of
humans involved in multimodal referential communication. The dataset contains audio/video …

The potential ability of the human brain to represent an artificial limb as a body part
(embodiment) has been inspiring engineers, clinicians, and scientists as a means to …

The authors demonstrate a novel template-based approach to profiling brand image using
functional magnetic resonance imaging. They compare consumers' brain responses during …
