Semantic Relatedness Emerges in Deep Convolutional Neural Networks Designed for Object Recognition

Human not only can effortlessly recognize objects, but also characterize object categories into semantic concepts with a nested hierarchical structure. One dominant view is that top-down conceptual guidance is necessary to form such hierarchy. Here we challenged this idea by examining whether deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) could learn relations among objects purely based on […]

Altered Regional Cerebral Blood Flow and Brain Function Across the Alzheimer’s Disease Spectrum: A Potential Biomarker

Objective: To investigate variation in the characteristics of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF), brain activity, and intrinsic functional connectivity (FC) across the Alzheimer’s disease spectrum (ADS).Methods: The study recruited 20 individuals in each of the following categories: Alzheimer’s disease (AD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), subjective cognitive decline (SCD), and healthy control (HC). All participants completed […]
