(a) Experimental procedure. The stimulus set comprised 12 face targets, 12 object targets, and 45 masks of various objects. Participants viewed a RSVP sequence of 11 images, with the middle image …
(a) Multivariate pattern analysis of MEG signals. A support vector machine (SVM) classifier learned to discriminate pairs of target images using MEG data at time point t. The decoding accuracies …
(a) Time course of categorical division depending on presentation rate. For each condition, the MEG decoding matrix was divided into 3 segments for pairs of within-face, within-object, and …
For each condition and at each time point a SVM classifier was trained to decode object versus face trials with a leave-one-out procedure. The shape and peaks of the time series largely match the …
The SVM classifier was trained with MEG data from a given time point t (training time) and tested on all other time points (testing time). The temporal generalization decoding matrix was averaged …
(a) For every time point t, the EVC-specific MEG RDM was compared (Spearman’s rho) with the EVC-specific fMRI RDM, yielding a time series of MEG-fMRI representational similarity at EVC. (b) Same as …
