Abstract

Electroencephalogram (EEG) is a very promising and widely implemented procedure to study brain signals and activities by amplifying and measuring the post-synaptical potential arising from electrical impulses produced by neurons and detected by specialized electrodes attached to specific points in the scalp. It can be studied for detecting brain abnormalities, headaches, and other conditions. However, there are limited studies performed to establish a smart decision-making model to identify EEG's relation with the mood of the subject. In this experiment, EEG signals of 28 healthy human subjects have been observed with consent and attempts have been made to study and recognise moods. Savitzky-Golay band-pass filtering and Independent Component Analysis have been used for data filtration.Different neural network algorithms have been implemented to analyze and classify the EEG data based on the mood of the subject. The model is further optimised by the usage of Blackman window-based Fourier Transformation and extracting the most significant frequencies for each electrode. Using these techniques, up to 96.01% detection accuracy has been obtained.

Only what exists can cause: An intrinsic powers view of free will

This essay addresses the implications of integrated information theory (IIT) for free will. IIT is a theory of what consciousness is and of how its presence and quality can be accounted for in physical terms. According to IIT, the presence of consciousness is accounted for by a maximum of cause-effect power in the brain. Moreover, the way an experience feels is accounted for by how that cause-effect power is structured. If IIT is right, we do have free will in a genuine sense: we have alternatives, reasons, and values, we make decisions, and we-not our neurons or atoms-are the cause of our willed actions and bear responsibility for them. IIT's argument for genuine free will hinges on the proper understanding of consciousness as intrinsic existence, captured by its intrinsic powers ontology: what exists absolutely, in physical terms, are intrinsic entities, and only what exists can cause.

Seeing the imagined: latent functional alignment in visual imagery decoding from fMRI data

Recent progress in visual brain decoding from fMRI has been enabled by large-scale datasets such as the Natural Scenes Dataset (NSD) and powerful diffusion-based generative models. While current pipelines are primarily optimized for perception, their performance under mental-imagery remains less well understood. In this work, we study how a state-of-the-art (SOTA) perception decoder (DynaDiff) can be adapted to reconstruct imagined content from the NSD-Imagery benchmark. We propose a latent functional alignment (LFA) approach that maps imagery-evoked activity to the pretrained model's semantic content-enriched conditioning space, by adding a simple alignment module, while keeping the original remaining components frozen. To mitigate the limited amount of matched imagery-perception supervision, we further introduce a neural retrieval-based augmentation strategy that selects semantically related NSD perception trials from the same participants. Across four subjects, LFA consistently improves high-level semantic reconstruction metrics relative to the frozen pretrained baseline and a voxel-space ridge alignment baseline, and enables above-chance decoding from multiple cortical regions. These results suggest that semantic structure learned from perception can be leveraged to stabilize and improve visual imagery decoding under out-of-distribution conditions.

Deep Learning in Infant Functional Neuroimaging: Challenges, Advances, and Future Directions

Infancy is a critical developmental window characterized by rapid functional brain reorganization, during which large-scale networks emerge, individualized connectome signatures continue to form, and early deviations may shape long-term cognitive and clinical outcomes. Functional MRI (fMRI) offers an opportunity to study these processes in vivo, yet extracting developmentally meaningful information from it remains challenging due to comparatively short scan duration, structured motion artifacts, variable scan states, and rapid brain maturation. Amid these challenges, deep learning has expanded the capacity of computational neuroimaging by learning robust representations from noisy, high-dimensional data, integrating complex spatial and temporal information, and capturing the nonlinear and rapidly evolving organization of the developing brain. Here, we review recent advances in deep learning for infant functional neuroimaging, synthesizing progress across input representation formatting, population and individualized brain mapping, longitudinal trajectory forecasting, robust and explainable model evaluation, and biological translation. Collectively, these methodological advances mark a paradigm shift in infant functional neuroimaging from descriptive, group-level analyses toward reliable, individualized, and developmentally grounded models. Future progress will depend on larger and more diverse longitudinal datasets, developmentally appropriate model designs, rigorous and standardized evaluation, and integration of computational predictions with biological mechanisms towards clinically meaningful outcomes. Addressing these priorities will help establish deep learning as a robust framework for understanding early functional brain development, identifying developmental variation at the individual level, and ultimately supporting earlier and precise assessment of neurodevelopmental risk.
