A central controversy in consciousness science concerns whether the neural correlates of consciousness (NCCs) exclusively reside posterior to the central sulcus or also include frontal regions [1–4]. In a recent Trends in Cognitive Sciences article, Block [5] contends that popular ‘no-report’ paradigms [6,7] cannot settle this dispute, since absence of report is consistent with extensive […]

A novel deep learning based model called Multi-Planar Spatial Convolutional Neural Network (MPS-CNN) is proposed for effective, automated segmentation of different sub-regions viz. peritumoral edema (ED), necrotic core (NCR), enhancing and non-enhancing tumor core (ET/NET), from multi-modal MR images of the brain. An encoder-decoder type CNN model is designed for pixel-wise segmentation of the tumor […]

There has been growing interest in studying the temporal reconfiguration of brain functional connectivity to understand the role of dynamic interaction (e.g., integration and segregation) among neuronal populations in cognitive functions. However, it is crucial to differentiate between various dynamic properties because nearly all existing dynamic connectivity studies are presented as spatiotemporally dynamic, even though […]
